From IESB

Chuck Roven is no longer working on the feature film adaptation of Robotech although he wishes the remaining producers well.

Jeff Otto represented IESB and talked to Roven exclusively in Beverly Hills today and asked about the status of the project.

His comments are below:

IESB: What’s the current progress on the Robotech script and where is that project at right now?

Chuck Roven: You know, that’s not really a project that I’m involved with any more, so you need to talk to Akiva Goldsmith or Tobey Maguire about that project.

IESB: Is it possible you will get involved with that project again?

CR: You know, I just really couldn’t tell you. Those are great guys and I wish them fantastic luck with it and it’s really a great project.

Robotech is currently set up of over at Warner Bros. with Alfred Gough, Miles Millar and Lawrence Kasdan attached to write.

Based on the sprawling sci-fi epic, "Robotech" takes place at a time when Earth has developed giant robots from the technology on an alien spacecraft that crashed on a South Pacific isle. Mankind is forced to use the technology to fend off three successive waves of alien invasions. The first invasion concerns a battle with a race of giant warriors who seek to retrieve their flagship's energy source known as "protoculture," and the planet's survival ends up in the hands of two young pilots.

"Robotech" was an anaimated series during the 1980s from Harmony Gold USA and Tatsunoko Productions.

Tobey Maguire is producing through his Maguire Entertainment and is eyeing the lead role in what the studio plans on being a tentpole sci-fi franchise.

When the writers for the script were said to have changed-over, I think we were all more-than-willing to accept "status quo" filmmaking practices at-work. But when combined with this news, the production of the Robotech live-action movie is starting to look kinda shaky, not to mention that it's worth (even if tongue-in-cheek) wondering if the final group of staff will even resemble the high-hopes staff with which it originally began.

NOT REALLY. SPECULATION FROM THE BEGGINING WAS THAT HE MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN INVOLVED WITH BATMAN AS WELL IF ANY WOULD BE MADE AFTER #2. THING IS, IT CAME SOONER AS EXPECTED.

AS WELL AS TOBEY WITH SPIDERMAN. EVERYONE FIGURES THE SAME IF HE WOULD GO BACK TO PLAY THE ROLE.

ALL IS COMPLETELY NOT BECOUSE OF ROBOTECH. JUST THAT YOU HAVE TWO PROVEN HUGE MONEYMAKING MOVIES KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR ITS HARD TO PASS UP.

TOBEY PROVED THAT AFTER HE SAID HE WOULD NOT PLAY SPIDERMAN AGAIN.




NOW WE WAIT AND SEE. WHO KNOWS WHAT OTHER SURPRISES POPS UP.

HEHEHE
