A MUST READ FOR ANY SCI-FI FAN!
Steven Spielberg's Night Skies, Stanley Kubrick's Childhood's End, Philip Kaufman's Star Trek: Planet of the Titans, Kevin Smith's Six Million Dollar Man, Tim Burton's Superman Lives, Jon Favreau's John Carter of Mars...
...These are just some of the legendary unmade films covered in this groudbreaking book, proving that even if you are one of the most powerful names in Hollywood, development can still be hell. This expanded and fully updated edition also reveals the fascinating details of the movies that nearly were: what would James Cameron's version of Spider-Man, or Terry Gilliam's Watchmen have been like? How close did Ridley Scott come to directing I Am Legend starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, and why was Nicolas Cage paid $20 million for not playing Superman?
