"Southland Tales" Final Cut Locked
http://www.darkhorizons.com/news06/061211f.php
"Donnie Darko" helmer Richard Kelly has posted in his MySpace blog that they have finally locked picture on "Southland Tales".
Set in a near-future post-apocalyptic Los Angeles, the film follows the criss-crossed destinies of an action film actor (The Rock) stricken with amnesia, an ex-porn star (Sarah Michelle Gellar) in the midst of reconverting, and twin brothers (Seann William Scott) whose destinies becomes confused with that of all mankind.
The current runtime on 'Tales' now stands at 137 mins, a full 27 minutes shorter than the "work-in-progress" version shown to much derision at this year's Cannes Film Festival.
Kelly confirmed he has tightened the narrative and Justin Timberlake just recorded his final voice work last Sunday.
There's still some visual effects touches to be added, but a release date and trailer are due quite soon.
Finally, he also revealed that he has been prepping "The Box" simultaneously while editing. A March 2007 production start in Virginia is being targeted.
