"Jericho" Feature Film in the Works - Blu-ray Forum

GreenScar · 01-18-2009, 05:24 AM

"Jericho" executive producer/director Jon Turteltaub spoke to iF Magazine to reveal that his company is currently working out ideas for a potential feature film based on the TV show.

"We're developing a feature for 'Jericho'," said Turteltaub. "It would not require you to have seen the TV show, but it get into life after an event like this on a national scale. It would be the bigger, full on American version of what's going on beyond the town in Jericho."

He added that he would want for the TV cast to return and will be happy to work with a bigger budget. "Anything would be a huge budget compared to what we were dealing with," said Turtletaub. "If we had $40 million dollars to make a movie with, that's 20 times more than we did before."

Being a fan of the series this is great news, do hope however it sticks to the whole conspiracy story with the new government.
