Efron's 'Jonny Quest' gets name change
Friday, April 10 2009, 23:26 BST
By Tim Parks Zac Efron’s next film is reportedly suffering an identity crisis. The upcoming Jonny Quest movie will not bear any relation to the cartoon on which it is based, the Los Angeles Times reports. Warner Brothers is said to be "worried" about using the titular character’s name on the production over fears that its connection to the cartoon could scare off prospective viewers. The publication cited last summer’s Speed Racer as an example of the theory, pointing out that the Wachowski Brothers's adaptation of the classic 1960s animated series cost $120 million to make and only earned $44 million domestically. The movie studio has already made attempts to distance the relationship between the movie and TV show by making Efron’s character older than the animated teenager. http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/a...me-change.html |
