With It remake director Andy Muschietti coming aboard Sony's long-gestating Robotech adaptation in July, the project has added another key creative addition with Jason Fuchs (Wonder Woman) signing on to write the script. This adaptation has been in development for several years, but now it seems it may finally have a shot of making it through production. Still, the studio hasn't set a production start date or even a release date yet, but still it's good news for fans of the franchise who have been waiting years to see this story on the big screen.
Deadline reports that Jason Fuchs will be working with Andy Muschietti to craft a brand new story from scratch, meaning they will discard the drafts written by several different writers over the years. We first reported on this adaptation back in 2008, when Star Wars writer Lawrence Kasdan signed on to write the script. Since then,...

Indie Film Distribution/Production Company Rogue Arts has just signed a partnership agreement with Fairway Film Alliance to distribute films globally. The partnership began at Afm where three of Rogue Arts new titles were launched successfully. "We are creating these kind of relationships in order to be completely transparent with both our investors and our filmmakers. It is a great time of growth in our company", stated company founder, Kirk Harris. "Our goal is a new type of company where partnership with the filmmaker really means both the filmmaker and the distributor benefit from the proceeds and know step by step what is occurring with the films," stated Don Franken, also a Principal at Rogue Arts.
Rogue Arts has produced 8 films and Rogue Arts and Fairway Films Alliance has handled the distribution of more than 50 titles.

Take Shelter (limited)- IMDb – Rt (95%)
The most anticipated movie of the year for me is finally here, somewhere. Of course it’s trailing well with critics and audiences, and of course it’s only in limited release making hard for me to find and love. Michael Shannon is expected to win some neat awards for his role here; he’s as good as ever on Boardwalk Empire which is off to its second season. He’s everywhere and should be. Check out all of our coverage for Take Shelter here.
