Daily news dose: 'Resident Evil: Afterlife' shooting scheduled; Russell Crowe to return as Jack Aubrey?

Here is your dose of film news for July 17, 2009:

• Production Weekly reports "Resident Evil: Afterlife" is set to start shooting Sept. 28 at Toronto's Cinespace Film Studios for eight weeks. A couple of weeks ago, we learned the fourth installment in the series is currently scheduled to open Sept. 17, 2010. Milla Jovovich will return to star, and Paul W.S. Anderson wrote the script. But who will direct? (via ComingSoon)

• Russell Crowe is apparently in negotiations to reprise his role as Capt. Jack Aubrey in a new "Master and Commander" movie. Crowe first starred as the character in Peter Weir's excellent 2003 flick "Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World." The actor told the AP the script is based mostly on the eleventh novel of Patrick O'Brian's series, "The Reverse of the Medal."

• Jeff Wadlow, whose credits include "Cry Wolf" and "Never Back Down," is set to direct Summit's "Arena" from a script by Toby Wagstaff and Darren Howell. The story follows a group of soldiers who must battle powerful warriors from different eras. Sounds a bit awkward to me, but okay, we'll see what happens inside the "Arena" once more information will be released. (THR)

'Resident Evil 4' to be released in 2010?

Please be advised the following is only a rumor at this point. The folks at ShockTillYouDrop say a studio source claims Sony is planning to release a fourth "Resident Evil" flick by Sept. 17, 2010.

This is obviously unconfirmed at this point. Still, we've been hearing quite a few things about the possibility of "Resident Evil 4," which is also now referred to as "Resident Evil: Afterlife."

It started exactly one year ago, when Paul W.S. Anderson said he would like to make another installment. Last January, news of a completed script started to surface. Back then, rumor had it Anderson would not return to direct.

If you've seen "Resident Evil: Extinction," you obviously know the film already hinted at another sequel. Right not, it's just not sure when it's actually going to happen, and who will be part of it.

So, how do you feel about a potential 2010 date? Should Anderson be back to direct? Share your thoughts below.
