Dimension are certainly reshuffling like crazy of late, something’s definitely shook them up and to coincide with the ‘extreme’ pushing back of the release for ‘Apollo 18’ word has arrived that something similar, albeit not as drastic, has also occurred to fishy follow-up ‘Piranha 3DD’. The sequelisation to Alexandre Aja’s fun summer b-movie nod has been whipped back from it’s intended September 2011 slot to 23 November. Can’t really imagine that audiences prepping for Winter are going to be too involved in a sunshine based horror flick though, but who knows. In addition to this it seems that producer and writer Joel Soisson (‘Hellraiser: Hellworld’, ‘Pulse 3’) has been tapped by Dimension to redraft the script penned by ‘Feast’ triology scribes Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton, and to also co-produce. ‘Feast’ helmer John Gulager will direct. Aja’s original gave us laughs, gore, bikini clad hotties and more in some good old fashioned popcorn fun. Casting for more young, vibrant, hot stars is no doubt in the back of everyone’s minds but can producers top the adolescent titilation like that from two of it’s stars Kelly Brook and Riley Steele as well as the full-on gore factor of it’s predecessor? Might take some doing.
