Infamous director Uwe Boll He is arousing the dispute again, this time refusing to change the title of his next film, The dark knightDespite a warning by Warner Bros. Discovery.
The film, which is interpreted Armie Hammer In his so -called return of Hollywood, he speaks of a vigilante that takes justice in his hands and there are no cloak or battables.
However, this did not prevent WB from sending a letter of termination to Boll and desisting, claiming that the title is too closely linked Christopher NolanBatman Classic 2008. As you have suspected, Boll is not backward and is ready to fight.
Boll said on the Uwe Boll Podcast network (through World of Reel) “DC and Warner have already contacted and said I can’t use the title. I understand it but I told them:” Guys, remember Rampage, The film rock? You used my title. ‘”
“The fact that they did it and called me for permission, they could show gratitude and say, listen, it is not a Batman movie and you can use the title.”
Refers to his 2009 supervisory film Rampagewho shared his name with the 2018 Dwayne Johnson Blockbuster based on the Arcade game. Warner Bros. did not seem to have a problem with that shared title, so Boll sees no reason to change The dark knight.
The thing with that is Rampage It is the title of the game that precedes the Boll film, so it is a weak topic.
Unlike Nolan’s film Batman, Boll’s The dark knight It will not present billionaires in Batsuits. Instead, it is a violent action thriller that faces migrants and crime in Europe, with Hammer presumably playing the “white knight” to save the day.
Boll continued to make some shots in superhero films in general, echoing the criticisms of Martin Scorsese, saying:
“Most of the DC and Marvel films films. They are too long and with infinite CGI, and everything is false and the stories suck. Above all Batman, how many Batman do we want to look? Suck.”
Here you have it. I don’t expect anything less as a bull. It is just a wild man who marches the rhythm of his drum and you have to love him for that. It remains to be seen if Warner Bros. undertakes a legal action.
