Speaking with IGN (via SFLuxe), director Paul W.S. Anderson (
Death Race, Resident Evil) gave an update on the status of Castlevania, the upcoming action-horror flick based on the popular Konami video game series.
Anderson, who is writing and producing the movie, says he still plans on making it, but last year's Writers Guild strike and a potential Screen Actors Guild strike have put the project on hold.
"It's a project that everybody likes. I love the videogame. I think the script is really strong. Everyone is really enthusiastic about it, but we’re still in the process of deciding when the movie gets shot," Anderson explained.
Sylvain White, who helmed Stomp the Yard and the direct-to-disc sequel I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer, is still attached to direct Castlevania.
Anderson also says a fourth Resident Evil is definitely in the cards. He is currently writing the script.

The Hollywood Reporter says Jimmy Hayward, who directed the animated
Horton Hears a Who! will make his live-action debut with
Jonah Hex, the Warner Bros. weird western based on the DC Comics character.
Josh Brolin is attached to star in the film, which previously had Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor ("Crank") on board as directors. The duo, who also wrote the script, bowed out over creative differences in November. The studio, which hopes to put the movie into production in March or April, went on a fast-track search, putting together a short list that included such names as Andy Fickman and McG before narrowing it down to Hayward.
The character of Hex, known for having the right side of his face disfigured and wearing a Confederate army uniform, was a rough-and-tumble gunslinger and part-time bounty hunter whose adventures always ended in blood. One incarnation of his comic book series saw the Western genre combined with supernatural elements, and it's this aspect that was featured in Neveldine and Taylor's script. The studio will likely keep the script, though it's expected that Hayward will put his stamp on it.
