It's been a long time in development but the remake of Park Chanwook's Oldboy directed by Spike Lee and starring Josh Brolin, Sharlto Copley, Elizabeth Olsen and Samuel L. Jackson is finally coming together and less than a month after the announcement that FilmDistrict would be distributing the project, they've already picked a release date. That date is in less than a year on October 11, 2013, which would put it up against Paul Greengrass' Somali pirate movie Captain Phillips, starring Tom Hanks, and Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith 3D.
Since the movie just started production in New Orleans earlier this month, it's probably too early to tell if this date was chosen because it might be worthy of any sort of awards consideration or it just feels like a Fall movie, but there you go.
Those who've been anxiously awaiting this remake will finally get to see it in less than a year; those who've been dreading it will only have a year to wait until they can complain about it further.
