What's Next?

July, 2000:
Dean Devlin will be
making his debut as a
director for a movie
called "Cellular".  The
plot centers around a
man who receives a
call on his cell phone
from a strange woman
who is being held
hostage.  He has until
her phone battery runs
out to find her and
save her life.  It's a
unique concept that
could translate into a
big box-office hit with
a relatively low budget.

Centropolis is going to
be involved in:

Bros. for a giant
monster movie called
Arac Attack. The film,
which Centropolis had
been developing, will
have a budget of $30M.
According to Variety,
the eventual pic will tell
the story of a toxic waste spill that results
in the creation and
rampage of giant
spiders. Described as a
comedy thriller, the film
will be directed by Ellory
Elkayem (They Nest)
and will shoot on
location in Australia.
Production is scheduled
to start in September.
Dean Devlin and Roland
Emmerich will produce
the project. Centropolis
Effects will handle the
film's effects.
