Fox line-up 2004:
20th Century Fox heeft een overzicht van toekomstige films gepubliceerd en Coming Soon
heeft de nieuwe pics en production info direct geplaatst op de website. De line-up bevat o.a. nieuwe pics van Alien vs. Predator,
I, Robot met Will Smith en Ben Stiller's nieuwe komedie Dodgeball.
 Alien vs Predator: The iconic monsters from two of the scariest film franchises ever, battle each other on Earth for the first time on film. The discovery of an ancient pyramid buried in Antarctica sends a team of scientists and adventurers to the frozen continent. There, they make an even more terrifying discovery: two alien races engaged in the ultimate battle. No matter who wins, we lose.
Dodgeball: A small local gym is threatened with extinction by a gleaming sports and fitness palace unless a group of social rejects can rise to victory in the ultimate dodge ball competition.
I, Robot: Will Smith stars in this action thriller inspired by the classic short story collection by Isaac Asimov, and brought to the big screen by dynamic and visionary director Alex Proyas ("Dark City," "The Crow"). In the year 2035, robots are an everyday household item, and everyone trusts them, except one, slightly paranoid detective (Smith) investigating what he alone believes is a crime perpetrated by a robot. The case leads him to discover a far more frightening threat to the human race. "I, Robot" uses a spectacular, state-of-the-art visual effects technique to bring a world of robots to life.

Peter Jackson talks King Kong!:
AICN heeft een geweldige conversatie
met regisseur Peter Jackson gehad. Hij sprak uiteraard over zijn laatste film Return of the King
maar hij vertelde ook iets over zijn nieuwe film King Kong:
You're now going to remake one of the greatest films of all time: KING KONG. We talked to Fran and Philippa about it; they said that you're going to throw out the old script, and go on with something else. Tonally, what are you going for: is this going to be more of an adventure film?
"What we're doing with KONG now, and it's a lesson that we learned from LORD OF THE RINGS... what interests us about KONG is to actually treat it very real. That's sort of what we did with RINGS, which is to say, we have the fantasy elements; we have the Balrog, and the trolls, and the orcs, and elves, and dwarves, and things, but we're going to write it with a degree of truth, if you like. Truth within the world that this story exists. So, we tried to eliminate a lot of artifice and simplicity from it, and let the actors play the roles as genuinely as they could, and with as much depth and true spirit. We think that KONG is going to be interesting, if we do that with KONG now. Our first script that we wrote was a very Hollywood, sort of INDIANA JONES-y type thing. Now, we think it's going to be much more interesting… to treat it real. How would you react if you went to an island and found dinosaurs and a giant gorilla? How would you react if you see the woman being kidnapped by the gorilla? If you were the woman, how would you react if you were kidnapped by the gorilla? What *would* you do? The exploration of what you would do, and how you would feel, and who is Kong, and why is he doing this, and what does he represent? Our interest now lies in writing a script that will be very different to... our original script, writing a script which now has a lot of emotional truth to it."
