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.

They better not ruin it. I cried my eyes out at the end of that book and IT BETTER happen again in the theatre. Viggo rules - so I am looking forward to it.
Look for it in Nov 09.... and yes it will be amazing.
God, that book was so lazy. He coudn't even be troubled to come up with names for the characters.
That is very close to how I envisioned the landscape in my mind. Can't wait to see it.
This was one of the best books I have ever read. Super easy read and a great concept. Made me really think about my relationship with my son. I cried at the end of this book too....
