It looks like the Red Dwarf movie realease date may be put back to Christmas 2002. Many believed it would be scheduled for Summer 2002….
quote:
[b]…. following the announcement that the Matrix sequel has been postponed from 2002 until the summer of 2003, early reports have come from Red Dwarf Films indicating a later production period and eventual release.
According to producer Charles Armitage, it is now more likely that the movie will emerge at Christmas. With the summer of 2002 set to be dominated by the release of Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones, it seems a wise move to steer Red Dwarf away from competing with the monster franchise.
The Christmas release slot is traditionally a successful one for ‘British’ action pictures such as the James Bond series. This makes it more appropriate for Red Dwarf – The Movie, which, given its size and scope, could not make do with a limited number of screens. [/b]
