Judge Dredd returns!
December 22, 2008
Judge Dredd, the future-cop comic book hero first brought to the big screen in 1995 with Sly Stallone in the lead role, is coming back to theaters. Rebellion Developments, who publish the comics anthology 2000 AD in which Judge Dredd appears, has announced that they will collaborate on the new movie with DNA Films (Sunshine, 28 Weeks Later). Jason Kingsley, CEO and Creative Director at Rebellion said, "We can't give away too many details at this point, but we're looking forward to working with DNA Films to bring Judge Dredd back to the big screen." The prior big-screen version of Britain's best known home-grown comics character is not viewed by fans as a particularly faithful adaptation. The new version could be positioned to be much more true to the source material given that it's being developed by London-based DNA. The movie is expected to get underway in 2009. More on the new Judge Dredd flick as it comes in.

The new Judge Dredd movie just got a bit more interesting, with 2000AD artist Mark 'Jock' Simpson announcing on his Twitter page (as reported by MTV) that Alex Garland would be writing a draft of the script.
Garland previously wrote The Beach, 28 Days Later and Sunshine for Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle. Simpson's exact tweet was: "Working through script visuals for Judge Dredd movie. Alex Garland writes a great script." The news is actually not that much of surprise, considering Danny Boyle's production company DNA Films is shepherding the project, along with 2000AD publisher Rebellion. Nonetheless, the involvement of such a talented writer should hopefully ensure this version of Dredd fares better than the 1995 effort, which starred Sylvester Stallone in the title role.

Up-and-coming actor Karl Urban, who made an appearance last week at the San Diego Comic-Con in support of his new comic book-based movie, RED, recently told ReelzChannel's Steve Patterson that it was looking good for him to star in producer Danny Boyle's planned live-action Judge Dredd reboot.
Urban has now confirmed that he has officially landed the role by telling the host of the TV3 show Reel Late with Kate (via 3News), "I am the law," a line borrowed from the 2000 A.D. comic books in which Judge Dredd first appeared. Urban said that he is "thrilled to bits" to have landed the role that was first brought to life on screen by Sylvester Stallone. Boyle's DNA films is producing Judge Dredd, with financing from Reliance BIG Pictures, and it will completely reboot the property, going back to the source material that made the character popular. Back in January, creator John Wagner, who said that he "hated" the plot of Stallone's 1995 movie, called the new Judge Dredd script written by Alex Garland (Sunshine) "high-octane, edge-of-the-seat stuff," and a "truer representation" of the real Judge Dredd. Pete Travis (Endgame) is attached to direct.
