Doom Movie in Production For Aug 2005 Release
Lord Prox writes "Doom:
The motion picture is now in production from
Universal Pictures for a release date of August 5, 2005. According to
IMDB the cast includes The Rock, Rosamund Pike, Razaaq Adoti, Ben Daniels, and Karl Urban. The plot
and
setting is right from the game."
Angelina Jolie will only play Honor Harrington in any media if and only if authorized by David Weber's estate (read: over his dead body), and I would not be surprised if he had a codicil in his will preventing such.
(For those who don't know, Angelina Jolie was able to adopt a Cambodian child in unbelievably expedited fashion while the Weber's adoption -- and seemingly everyone else who wasn't famous --was placed on bureaucratic hold.)
