If you dig around in the Sony files that were leaked by hackers last year, you’ll find emails and tentative scheduling for a Doc Savage movie.
So, when was it scheduled, you ask? 2015.
As you can see in the excerpt displayed at right, at the bottom of the tentative 2015 Columbia Pictures calendar, there is clearly Doc Savage among the TBA listings for the year.
Of course, the other films — Winter’s Discontent, Invertigo, Karate Kid 2, Popeye, and Five Against a Bullet — aren’t out either. But they aren’t movies based on pulp characters, so I’m not too worried about them.
Today is Oct. 1, the first day of the year’s fourth quarter. Come on, Sony (and this applies to Columbia, Shane Black, Michael Uslan, Neal Mortiz, or whoever else is involved), get busy — but do a good job. 🙂
