When will the Silent Hill Homecoming movie be getting sequel?”
It looks like we could be getting a sequel to the 2006 movie adaptation of Konami’s Silent Hill game franchise. The Hollywood Reporter has word that Davis Films plans to start filming the sequel to the movie sometime in 2010. Scriptwriter Roger Avary and producer Samuel Hadida will return to their roles for the sequel but there’s no word if the movie’s original director Christophe Gans will return. The original movie got mixed reactions from critics but did solid business in both theaters and later on DVD. Avary was also supposed to both write and direct a movie based on id Software’s Wolfenstein franchise but there’s been no movement on that project since it was announced in 2007. Avary has also been dealing with the repercussions of driving a car that was involved in a crash in 2008 that killed a passenger. Last month Avary pleaded guilty to vehicular manslaughter and drunken driving and is scheduled to be sentenced later this month.
Silent Hill: Homecoming marks the next-gen debut of the psychological horror series thrusting players into a shadowy world of chaos and terror with atmospheric HD graphics and an original storyline that sheds new light on the desolate, fog-shrouded town of Silent Hill. SH5 sports an all-new soundtrack by Akira Yamaoka, so it will be as iconic and chilling as it’s always been. While there is no word from TriStar whether they will commit to a follow up to the 2006 Silent Hill movie, which grossed $47 million in North America, screenwriter Roger Avary and producer Samuel Hadida have signed on to work on a sequel based on Konami’s survival horror video game. Davis Films plans to start shooting next year as it is currently working on Resident Evil 4, while Avary, known for collaborating with Quentin Tarantino on Pulp Fiction, is currently writing the script for Return to Castle Wolfenstein for the French studio.
