Kevin Smith tells News Askew (www.newsaskew.com) that he’s got two films planned for this year, and one for next.
First up is Clerks 2 (aka The Passion of the Clerks). Says Smith, “It’s probably safer to assume that start date might move by a week. Maybe two [from the original April 18th planned start date]. Looking like a four week shoot.”
On the long-awaited Fletch Won, he says : “[October is] the plan. It’s just getting Miramax (or whatever Harvey & Bob’s new company is gonna be called) to go along with that plan. I mean, two movies in one year for less than twenty million? That’s a bargain and a half – particularly when both have built-in audiences. Both flicks will easily recoup, if not turn a nice theatrical profit (with video being free money). As you might imagine, it’s a little frustrating with the Disney/Miramax situation, as the wait for our cash-flow has extended far longer than it really should, considering the budget. Hopefully, we’ll get our cash this week.”
And then? “‘Ranger Danger’ will be in ’06. It’ll be the next flick we do after “Fletch Won.”
