Contributor Patrick Goldstein says the remake of "Red Dawn," which was filmed in Detroit last summer and fall, will not be released as expected on Nov. 24 of this year and that there is no alternative release date set.
While Goldstein doesn't quote any MGM sources, he says that the struggling film company doesn't have the money to distribute the film.
According to another LA Times story in late May, MGM is $3.7 billion in debt and debt holders are struggling to find ways to salvage the company.
Well, that’s a shame. Freeperati from coast to coast are no doubt conjuring up liberal conspiracy theories as we speak. Then again, seeing as how the film stars Connor Cruise, son of Tom, maybe we can find a way to blame the Scientologists. Or, since the new film paints the Chinese as the invading villains, instead of the Russians, maybe we can blame China.
Have no fear, young Wolverines. The new big-screen version of “Atlas Shrugged” might offer solace.
