Phoenix Times review of Killshot
Thanks to Mickey Rourke’s Golden Globe-winning performance in “The Wrestler,” the Weinstein Co. film Killshot isn’t a dead duck. It could even be called the “phoenix from Phoenix.” (more)
There is speculation all over the Internet on when the Weinstein company will release the adaptation for Elmore Leonard’s Killshot. Killshot, starring Mickey Rourk and Diana Lane was shot in and around Detroit, Michigan in 2008 and has a set release date of January 23, 2009. However, with the release date fast approaching, their is still no trailer for the movie.
The silver screen adaption of the Elmore Leonard novel Killshot is set to be released on January 23, 2009. Like most Elmore Leonard novels, Killshot is set in Detroit and the production for the movie was here for several days this past summer (this was also true for 1998’s Out Of Sight)
This very well may be the first movie to hit the theaters that used the new Michigan Film Incentives.
