'Time Traveler's Wife' Gets a Date
Filed under: Drama, Romance, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, New Line, Warner Brothers, RumorMonger
In my last rambling screed against certain release dates, I noted that I couldn't speak for the latest hiding place for The Time Traveler's Wife, the oft-delayed adaptation of the acclaimed romance novel. From the look of things, though, Warner Bros. has bumped back the equally romantic Final Destination 4 3D back to August 28th in order to give the weekend of the 14th to Wife.And what a summer this has become for star Eric Bana (he's the time traveler, not the wife). Between this, Star Trek in May and Funny People in July, the main Munich man has a nice marquee streak going for him, and of course, any excuse for a little more Rachel McAdams beyond April's State of Play is nothing to sniff at either (unless this thing turns out to be quite the tearjerker).
The move puts Wife up against the likes of family comedy Bandslam and sci-fi mystery District 9, while Destination now opens opposite Rob Zombie's Halloween 2, which is exactly the type of horror offering that would make me want to see FD4-3D instead.

Don't forget Bana's car documentary Love the Beast in April.

Can't wait for Love the Beast. Seriously, I thought Bana was a cool customer after Chopper/Munich/Black Hawk Down but just the trailer for Love the Beast puts me in heaven.

Rachel McAdams also has Sherlock Holmes in December, so she took is looking at three films this year if they all hold up. Their both having a great year so far.

Even though the casting is perfect I am full of meh for this movie. (Of course the book did nothing but anger me, so makes sense)

I couldn't agree less. I can not wait for this film. The book was an instant favorite of mine I really want to see how they handle it on film.
Gotta say I am very pleased with the casting.

I will love this movie if they manage to sneak in some Smoking Popes in any capacity.

Loved the book, can´t remember crying this much over a book since, errrr, Bambi? & can´t wait for the film. Eric Bana has been a favorite of mine for years and he´s still cute.
