Books / Film The Road: Nope, Still No Release Date. But Here's Some Concept Art!
Posted by Erik Henriksen on Wed, Apr 22, 2009 at 2:20 PM
So The Road? One of the most horrifying and beautiful books in recent memory? The one that's been made into amazing-sounding film, directed by John Hillcoat and starring Aragorn? The film that was partially shot here a while ago, and was supposed to be in theaters at the end of 2008? Well, there's still no release date for it. Shit, there hasn't even been a trailer. (If I was a betting man, I'd wager that we'll probably see it sometime this fall.)
There is, at least, this, though: Some of Production Designer Chris Kennedy's haunting concept art for the film has popped up online. Hit io9 to see more.
