Jovovich Signs for “Bad Luck”

Director David Ellis, the man who brought us “Snakes on a Plane,” is back and while none of the films on his upcoming docket have the same instant classic title, he still has a lot of interesting movies coming up.

And to make our own Mike Mennenga happy, he’s got one featuring Milla Jovovich.

The project featuring Mila is “Bad Luck” and tells of a group of friends find their lives changed when the superstitions they don’t believe in begin to come true.

That project hasn’t begun filming yet.

First up is another 3D movie for Ellis, who’s last movie, 2009’s “The Final Destination”, also took advantage of the in-your-face gimmick.

“Shark Night is going to be killer and shoots this summer in Shreveport LA”, Ellis says of a project that’s set up over at Incentive.

That film, like “Final Destination”, lends itself perfectly to 3D, says the filmmaker.

“I love the depth of a 3D movie – it’s how we view life, and I also love the interactive experience.”

After “Shark Night”, Ellis is booked to do “War Monkeys”, based on the comic of the same name, a thriller with “Star Wars” actor Hayden Christensen.

And what does Ellis have to say about his famously titled movie, “Snakes on a Plane?”

”I think we relied on the Buzz too much and did not market the movie correctly”, Ellis says.
