RoboCop On Hold, Aronofsky Most Likely No Longer Attached

According to Moviehole, a Phoenix Pictures representative reported that the RoboCop remake is on hold. Mary Parent of MGM wants a 3D film and Darren Aronofsky is not interested in the technology (remember). Of course, this could all be due to the possible sale of MGM. Who knows where the franchise will land in the end, but Aronofsky fans might as well let this one go for the time being.

Clint Mansell to Score Black Swan

In an interview with Little White Lies, Clint Mansell confirmed he is working on the score for the forthcoming Black Swan. Mansell reported, “one of the main ideas [Darren and I have] got is building the entire score out of elements from [Tchaikovsky’s] Swan Lake.” However, no solid direction has been set as Mansell is just now providing the “nuts and bolts” for principal photography. The real work will begin in January. [Little White Lies]
