Archive

According to the WENN, Sylvester Stallone is promising a Rocky comeback.

“We’re in the kitchen and we’re cooking. I’ve had meetings about this and it looks good. We’ll see what we come up with,” the actor said.

“Rocky 6” has been in limbo for quite some time now over at MGM studios, who currently owns the rights to the Rocky franchise. The story would supposedly have Rocky coming out of retirement to help raise money for a children’s charity.

Producer Rick Berman recently spoke with Sci-Fi.com (http://www.scifi.com) and denied rumors that Paramount Pictures has shelved his idea for a “Star Trek 11.”

“Unless there is something going on that I am not familiar with, the rumors are totally ficticious,” Berman said in an interview. “Absolutely neither statement, that something has been scuttled and that I have been asked to redevelop something, is true.”

Internet rumors suggested that Berman wanted to take “Star Trek 11” to the years pre-Star Trek: Enterprise, which is the TV show currently running on UPN.

Berman went on to say: “The status of the next film is it’s in an early state of story development, and the Paramount Motion Picture Group will announce personnel and whatever elements of the project when they see fit. If the project does develop as planned I think, of all the Star Trek movies I’ve been involved with and the previous regimes have been involved with, this one will undoubtedly have a larger scope and budget. It’s a very ambitious project, and I’m hoping that it will get the support to come to fruition.”
