When I first heard that Yahoo had talking posters from Frank Miller’s The Spirit, I thought to myself “Cool, this is the future of movie marketing”. I mean, eventually one-sheet displays will be replaced with flatscreen televisions which can easily switch in and out various movie posters. Say a screening of The Happening just gets [...]

The latest issue of Comic-Con Magazine has the first official photo of Samuel L. Jackson as The Spirit arch-enemy the Octopus. They also have an interview with Frank Miller talking about the upcoming comic book adaptation. Click to enlarge.

The Spirit hits theaters on Christmas 2008.

Lionsgate has decided to move the release date of Frank Miller’s adaptation of Will Eisner’s The Spirit up from January 16th next year to Christmas Day (December 25th 2008).

There has been so much news in the last few days that we just haven’t been able to get to all of it. Here is a round up of stories that just didn’t make the /Film front page, or what we like to call…. Page 2!
Yahoo Movies has the first character photo featuring Eva Mendes [...]

Lionsgate has released the official teaser trailer for Frank Miller’s big screen adaptation of Will Eisner’s The Spirit. I’m actually surprised at how well Miller has been able to translate his visual style to the big screen. I was, and still am, quite skeptical in Miller’s directing ablities, especially with Robert Rodriguez not at his [...]

Update: Watch The Spirit Teaser Trailer Here.
Lionsgate just released the new one-sheet for Frank Miller’s The Spirit featuring the film’s signature catchphrase, “My City Screams,” spelled out in noir-ish sooted city brick. Really well executed, don’t cha think, and this is merely the early lead-up to the movie’s January 2009 release. I’m sure the marketing [...]

So many photos, so little time. I’ve bunches these all together to save on the room. Enjoy.

FilmSchoolRejects has a photo of one of the new billboards in Los Angeles advertising The Spirit. Much cooler than the crappy production photos released a couple days back. There are supposedly more billboards like this around Los Angeles, [...]

Last week set photos from Frank Miller’s big screen adaptation of Will Eisner’s The Spirit leaked online, leaving some fans disappointed.
Update: Today Lionsgate has released two new production High Resolution photos, both of which desperately scream “See, the movie looks like Sin City, I swear it really does, don’t look at those other unauthorized unfinished [...]

Photos Removed at the Request of Lionsgate
Forty new photos from the set of Frank Miller’s big screen adaptation of Will Eisner’s The Spirit have leaked online at Dark Horizons. I’ve included the ten most interesting ones after the jump to give you a good taste. I’m still very unsure about this film, and these photos [...]

If you don’t have your contacts in, let me type you out the taglines from these three new posters for Frank Miller’s Will Eisner’s The Spirit. “My City Screams. She Is My Lover. And I Am Her Spirit.” I’d post the high-res versions but Superhero Hype said they’d put my little hands in a [...]

The word over at Superhero Hype is the Lionsgate has already negotiated with Frank Miller to direct two sequels to his Sin City-style green screen comic book caper The Spirit. If true, this would indicate tremendously sweet buzz on the project, as the main character, a detective who fakes his death to more vigilantly pursue [...]

Lionsgate sent us two new photos from the set Will Eisner’s The Spirit, which is directed by Frank Miller (Sin City).

I just got back from Albuquerque, New Mexico, where I went on set for the new Gerard Butler sci-fi action film (codenamed Game). Frank Miller was also in town filming The Spirit on a green [...]

Lionsgate has officially launched the official website for the adaptation of Will Eisner’s The Spirit. The website promises to have one-the-set production diaries and a production blog, but for right now there is a video introduction from director Frank Miller. The crew sets up for a green screen shot in the background as Miller talks [...]

20th Century Fox has moved the release date for the video game to film adaptation of Hitman from October 17th to November 21st. Maybe Fox wanted to distance Hitman from 30 Days of Night, which hits theaters on Friday, October 19th. Either that or there is still more work to be done on the film [...]

Eva Mendes has been cast in Frank Miller’s (Sin City, 300) big screen adaptation of Will Eisner’s The Spirit. Last week it was announced that Scarlett Johansson (Lost in Translation) was in final negotiations to star as the femme fatale in the film. Mendes will play Sand Saref, the only woman who could break the [...]
