Back in early June we got our hands on the most recent trailer for the Dolph Lundgren/Scott Adkins-starring creature feature actioner LEGENDARY, coming to us from director Eric Styles and screenwriter Andy Briggs, the writer behind the recent Syfy Original premiere THE PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT. Since that report we haven't heard much from the flick, but today that changes as it seems LEGENDARY has found a home.
Screen Daily is reporting that Wrekin Hill has acquired North American rights from GFM Films to LEGENDARY, which shot in China earlier this year. Wrekin Hill plans a day-and-date early 2014 release. CFO Rene Cogan and director of acquisitions Alex Mandell brokered the deal with GFM’s Fred Hedman.
LEGENDARY actually looks pretty fun in a B-movie, goofy good time kinda way. A little monster mayhem mixed with the potential of seeing Adkins and Lundgren throwing down yet again...count me in!
Travis (Adkins) and his team travel to China in search of what isn’t supposed to exist... their mission is to capture a cryptid that is wreaking havoc in a remote village where a water pipeline is being built. They need to do this before Harker (Lundgren), the legendary bounty hunter, finds and kills it — and before anyone else falls victim to its rage.
We'll keep you posted on when LEGENDARY will hit screens.
