UPenn

This week here are some tidbits of some upcoming films from some Mask and Wig alumni film producers:



UPenn and Norm Golightly
Norm Golightly (C'94, Mask and Wig) will be producing The Sorcerer's Apprentice for Saturn Films.

Per Variety,
"The plot centers on an average college student (Jay Baruchel), who is unwillingly recruited to work for sorcerer Balthazar Blake (Nicholas Cage). The sorcerer gives him a crash course in the art and science of magic to prepare him to fight the forces of darkness, including the evil magician Horvath (Alfred Molina), in modern Manhattan. Teresa Palmer will play Baruchel's love interest."

Norm's other Nic Cage movie Knowing comes out in theaters on March 20.

UPenn and Todd Lieberman
Todd Lieberman (C'95, AEPi, Mask and Wig) will be producing a remake of The Man With the X-Ray Eyes.  .

Per Variety,
"The original starred Ray Milland as a scientist who is near a breakthrough in X-ray vision technology when his funding is cut off. Desperate to show results, the doc applies eye drops that eventually cause him to lose control over his growing powers."

Todd also has a great looking movie coming out in June called The Proposal. Per Yahoo movies, the synopsis is as follows:
"A book editor (Sandra Bullock) is forced to marry her male assistant (Ryan Reynolds) in order to stay in the country. When they travel to Alaska to meet his family, the new couple has to fake their way through a surprise wedding thrown by his parents. "

Check out the trailer below:


Also, Todd's Beverly Hills Chihuahua movie also just came out on DVD
