Robert Rodriguez’s Schedule is Confusing? Predators, Sin City 2, Machete, Nervewrackers and Now The Jetsons?
Last time we reported on Rodriguez he announced that he was going to direct a remake of The Predators for Fox. In that report he mentioned he was going to direct The Jetsons but nothing was mentioned as to when he would work on it and we simply thought he would direct it after Sin City 2 and Predators. Predators is scheduled for a 2010 release next year and last we heard was that Sin City 2 was going into production this year for a 2010 release. So is he working on Sin City 2, Predators and Machete this year?
Machete i can see because he is just co-directing it and it isn’t going to require that many days of shooting. I can also see Sin City 2 not taking long to film but getting the plethora of mainstream actors involved and rumored for a shooting schedule will be difficult and then there is Predators which Fox I am assuming will want him to have a significant amount of time shooting.
Now Rodriguez is mentioning that he wants to shoot the live action version of The Jetsons next year?
MTV Movies Blog recently spoke with Rodriguez who revealed the news.
“I’ve been developing [The Jetsons] for awhile,” Rodriguez said, adding that he’s hoping to start shooting “next year.”
While the director did confirm that the film would be live-action, he was predictably mum about other details. Adam F. Goldberg (Fanboys) penned an early draft of the script, but it has since been reworked.
“We’re writing the script right now,” Rodriguez said excitedly, before declining to drop any hints about the plot or potential casting choices.
I don’t know about you, but I have no problems with Rodriguez shooting this next year… but I am just confused on his shooting schedule for all his other projects and how he will organize them. Predators seems like is first priority, then Sin City 2 and I guess The Jetsons? As long as he casts William H. Macy as George, Danny Devito as Spacely Sprockets, Mary Steenburgen as Jane I will be fine. I have no idea who’d bea good Elroy or Judy but I have heard Megan Fox’s name dropped for Judy?
Who would you like to see casted?
