‘Dark Skies’ Ahead For Keri Russell

Coming from writer/director Scott Stewart, DARK SKIES is a supernatural-thriller set to roll this summer. Confirmation on the lead actress has just announced Keri Russell will star as one half of a suburban couple. Their loving family lifestyle becomes increasingly terrifying when an alien presence sneaks into their home each night to prey upon their young children..so, INSIDIOUS with aliens instead of spooks, basically!

DARK SKIES (a title that has nothing to do with the same titled sci-fi series from the mid-nineties) will be Stewart’s third directorial effort after bonkers warring angel-flick LEGION and vampire-hunting PRIEST. I don’t mind admitting I bloody loved LEGION (a guilty pleasure with a premise similar to the Christopher Walken-led THE PROPHECY, another of my favourites), with an always ace Paul Bettany as winged Earth saviour Michael. As for PRIEST (also starring Bettany), the less said, the better.

What are the odds on Bettany reuniting with Stewart for a third time, to play Russell’s husband and father to her kids? If he sticks PRIEST in the Blu-ray for a night in with lovely wife Jennifer Connelly, we’re thinking – not a chance!

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.

    I do not create a bunch of responses, however i did some
    searching and wound up here ?Dark Skies? Ahead For Keri Russell.
    And I do have a few questions for you if it’s allright. Is it simply me or does it look like a few of the responses come across as if they are left by brain dead visitors? 😛 And, if you are writing at other sites, I’d like
    to keep up with anything fresh you have to post.
    Could you list of the complete urls of all your public pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin
    profile?
