FOX TO ADAPT THE DYSTOPIAN SAGA "THE MAZE RUNNER" INTO A FILM. ALEX PROYAS MIGHT DIRECT SF ACTION "AMP" . EPIC ADVENTURE "SCORPION KING III" STARTS SHOOTING IN ASIA

Young writer Daniel H. Wilson, who has sold the film rights for his book ROBOPOCALYPSE to Spielberg even before the book has been released, has got himself a new deal for a film adaptation of yet another of his unfinished novels - AMP. Alex Proyas (I, ROBOT, THE CROW)
will probably produce and direct this near-future science fiction thriller set in a world where the technology designed to make the disabled whole, turns them into supermen. Part sci-fi action and political allegory, the film will explore what it means to be human.

Catherine Hardwicke (TWILIGHT, RED RIDING HOOD) has been offered the helm behind the film adaptation of the dystopian novel THE MAZE RUNNER by 20th Century Fox according to "MovieWeb". The first part of the sci-fi trilogy by James Dashner follows a boy named Thomas who wakes up in a strange place called the Glade with no memory aside from his first name. The Glade is an enclosed structure populated by other boys, and is surrounded by tall, stone walls that
protect them from monsters called Grievers that live in the Maze, which surrounds the walls around the Glade.
Every day, some of the kids who are Runners venture into the labyrinth trying to map the ever-changing pattern of walls in an attempt to find an exit.As soon as Thomas arrives, unusual things begin to happen and the others grow suspicious of him. The Maze seems familiar to Thomas, but he's unable to make sense of the place despite his extraordinary abilities as a Runner.When the first girl arrives in the Glade, she brings a message that she will be the last one to ever arrive in the Glade, as the end is near.

Here's the part when I post some news just as an excuse for publishing some hot pics for my girls and my boys: the shooting of the popular epic adventure THE SCORPION KING III has just begun over in Thailand. The straight to DVD film continues the story of Mathayus, now the deposed leader of an ancient desert empire, as he faces the most terrifying challenge of his life. Handsome Victor Webster plays the lead role, joined by gorgeous Krystal Vee as the beautiful princess Silda, Billy Zane as the conniving King Talus and Ron Perlman as the powerful King of Egypt.
