Set construction has begun on Vin Diesel's "The Chronicles of Riddick", sequel to 'Pitch Black'. Director/writer David Twohy is back again with Ja Rule and Judi Dench recently signed. Vancouver's huge indoor set 'The Bridge Studios' is booked for the show from April to September.

Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Jr., Matthew Lillard and Linda Cardellini are back for "Scooby Too". 'Scooby-Doo' director Raja Gosnell helms again. Filming begins April 9 to July 22.

Ben Affleck started filming "Paycheck" April 1, the script based on Philip K. "Blade Runner" Dick's short story about an electrician who has his memories removed by his boss. Director John "Face Off" Woo directs. Filming will continue until July 16.

Friday 7th March 2003: I, Robot Update:
Alan Tudyk is ready to follow in the footsteps of Andy Serkis’ CGI Gollum
for sci-fi actioner I, Robot. Tudyk has been cast as the animation reference
for the CGI character Sonny opposite Will Smith. Tudyk‘s actions, facial
expressions and mannerisms will be CGI-enhanced to create the robot, much
like Serkis did with Gollum. Shooting will begin in May.

Thursday 6th March 2003: I, Robot Update:
The plot for I, Robot has been revealed online today "This motion picture will concentrate on Detective Del Spooner, who, with the aid of psychologist, Dr. Susan Calvin, will investigate the death of Dr. Miles Hogenmiller, a brilliant scientist who worked at US Robotics. Initially labeled a suicide, Spooner has other ideas, convinced that a robot may have taken the doctor's life. Isolated
and eccentric, Dr. Hogenmiller appears as a hologram of himself,
summoning Spooner to his side after his death. He was working on a very
special project when his life was cut short."

Friday 7th February 2003: I, Robot Update:
Looks like they will be doing a Gollum with the Robot for I, Robot with word that they are hiring an actor to work alongside Will Smith during the shoot and then replace him in post with a CG character. The makers are looking for an actor between 5-foot-11 and 6 feet tall, in his 20s or 30s, muscular, but not too muscular, ethereal, soft-spoken, gentle but strong, thoughtful, kind and obedient. They want to capture his movement and soul - just not him and his real voice may or may not be used.

Tuesday 14th January 2003: I, Robot Update:
Hmm we had heard last week that T, Robot was going to film in Canada because they couldn't find enough studio space in Australia, well it now appears that isn't the whole story as the rumour sweeping the net today is that Will Smith said NO to filming it in Australia. Seems the Smith clan weren't that keen on Australia while Jada Pinkett Smith was filming on the Matrix sequels. The VFX will still be done in Australia.

Monday 13th January 2003: I, Robot Update:
Will Smith's next movie called I, Robot will film between April 28th until October 3rd this year.

Friday 13th December 2002: I, Robot Update:
Director Alex Proyas is going to film the movie in Canada, he was working on pre-production in Australia, but partly due to Star Wars III and Peter Pan having taken up most of the sound stage space. The movie will return to Sydney for its post production schedule.

Wednesday 4th December 2002: I, Robot Update:
Further to rumours that Will Smith would star in I, Robot it has been confirmed that he will take the lead role. The movie is based on the Isaac Asimov short story that centred on his famous three laws of robotics.Those laws hold that a robot may not injure a human or, through inaction, allow a human to come to harm; a robot must obey orders given to it by a human, except where it would conflict with the first law; and a robot must protect itself, as long as that protection doesn't violate either the first or second law. The movie will focus on a detective investigating a crime that might have been perpetrated by a robot, even though that seems an impossibility given those three prevailing rules."The big idea here is that if the robots have found a way to violate the laws, there is nothing to stop them from taking over, because the human race is so dependent on robots and automation," said 20th Century Fox film president Hutch Parker. The script was originally Hardwiredby Jeff Vintar that was amalgamated with elements of I, Robot. Rewrites have been by Hillary Seitz and Akiva Goldman.

Monday 2nd December 2002: I Robot Update:
Will Smith is being mentioned in connection with taking the lead role in a movie to be called I Robot. I Robot is being developed by Director Alex Proyas. The movie is thought to be gearing up to start filming in the Spring of next year.
