Okay, Castlevania makes some sense, but a Pac-Man movie? I pity the poor sod who has to write that script. According to Variety, Crystal Sky Pictures has signed a $200-million deal with Grosvenor Park that includes 5 films: Pac-Man, Castlevania, an adaptation of Richard Branson's (Virgin) memoir, a sequel to John Woo's Hard Boiled, and The Lady, a new film by Italian master Giuseppe Tornatore.

Film director John Woo is best known for his Hong Kong action films, which includes such action classics as Hard-Boiled and The Killer, yet when he was lured by Hollywood to churn out movies, the results weren't so hot. With U.S. films like Windtalkers, Paycheck, Hostage and Mission: Impossible II safely behind him, Mr. Woo has returned to China where he can once again perform his art without restraint. His next feature is The Battle of Red Cliff, a massive epic about the Three Kingdoms period of ancient China and is the most expensive movie ever filmed in that region of the world.
Enjoy this Japanese teaser-trailer that offers a brief glimpse of what looks to be a treat for the eyes.
