Davis Films producer Samuel Hadida and Don Carmody announced that rising star Adelaide Clemens (X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Vampire, Camilla Dickinson, Wasted on the Young, next starring in Mad Max: Fury Road) and Kit Harington (HBO’s upcoming series Game of Thrones) will top-line Silent Hill: Revelation 3D. The film begins lensing in Toronto today and is directed by Michael J. Bassett (Solomon Kane, Deathwatch). International sales are being handled by Lionsgate.

Hadida said: “We are all excited to have the Silent Hill team reunited in Toronto. With Michael at the helm, we will be building on the first film and taking Silent Hill into new territory with an exciting storyline and visuals that should grab both new audiences and fans of the Silent Hill franchise.”

Carmody added: “Adelaide is breaking out of the indie world with commercial features such as X-Men and the upcoming Mad Max: Fury Road. She and Kit are emerging young talent, and their chemistry and dynamics make them a brilliant addition to the Silent Hill team.”

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D is based on the acclaimed survival horror videogame franchise by KONAMI and is the sequel to Hadida and Carmody’s earlier Silent Hill directed by Christophe Gans. For years, Heather Mason (Clemens) and her father have been on the run, always one step ahead of dangerous forces that she doesn’t fully understand. Now on the eve of her 18th birthday, plagued by terrifying nightmares and the disappearance of her father, Heather discovers she's not who she thinks she is. The revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her in Silent Hill forever.

I'm still not very sure how I feel about this project, but I shant deny it has potential. I think that Clemens looks pretty kewel as Heather, but for some reason her eyes bug me.XD

Opinions? Thoughts?


And for any who missed it, here is Michael J Bassetts's blog; michaeljbassett.wordpress.com/ , where he posts about this Silent Hill biz.

Well, she does resemble her. A bit too blonde maybe!

Edit: Hope they don't make her too much sexualized. That would go 100% against Heather's design

I have to admit this is the first concrete thing I've heard of a new SH movie (not having steady access to a computer really sucks). I'd given up hope a long time ago that it would ever happen.

I like the look of this girl (she has a strong resemblance to Rhada Mitchell, doesn't she?), but I agree with Chackan. I hope they keep her sex appeal out of it and stick with the Heather of the game.

[blackswordsman]

Meh, this tells me nothing. Her acting is what interests me.

But, you know, Samuel Hadida and Don Carmody, of Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D and Resident Evil: Apocalypse fame...

I don't have big hopes for this movie. If it's not worse than the first I'd be surprised. u_u

[strambo]

Looks just fine and dandy to me!

I sincerely enjoyed the first Silen Hill. Thoroughly pleased! So whichever way it goes, I'm bound to be slightly disappointed by the second instalment.

Never heard of the director, but with a resume like Solomon Kane and Deathwatch that sets off a few flags for me. Anyone ever heard of this guy? Is he any good? Should we be worried -he's the writer as well. Considering the plotline for this movie strays somewhat from the ending of the previous movie I have valid reason for concern.
Also, Gans said he'd like to be involved in the sequel if he wasn't at the helm. Anyone know anything about Gans at the moment?
I AM extremely happy with their choice of Heather though.

So far so good. What I'm waiting on is pictures of their take on Vincent. I didn't think they'd mess much with Heather, it's the side characters I'm more curious about.

[patient]

Oh Lordy, there are so many minute details to what makes Vincent an amazing character. For example, his lazy eye. They'll surely forget this, but also somehow manage to mess other things up that are more obvious.

I hope Claudia doesn't get eyebrows.

...Eh, I guess I'm being picky. We shall see. We shall see...

As long as they don't mess up the characters in that typical Hollywood manner, I'll be fine and dandy. I don't want any mad bible basher or hot young detective used as the cliche love interest. Leave that rubbish to somebody else.

Agreed.
