Do The Southland Slide

.

Director Richard Kelly writes in his MySpace blog:

"Hey everyone...

I have been incredibly busy prepping THE BOX! We start shooting November 17th in Boston... casting is underway and the story just broke on Variety so I am happy to confirm that Frank Langella will be playing the role of Arlington Steward in the film. Expect more casting announcements soon!

As for Southland Tales, the film will have its big red-carpet premiere at the Arclight Cinema in Hollywood as part of AFI Fest on Friday, November 2nd.

I also just got word from Goldwyn that they are bumping the release date from Friday, November 9th to Wednesday November 14th (LA/NY), to expand to other cities on Friday November 16th. I know... yet another delay... but they felt this was a strategic move that would help the film:)"

So Southland's coming just a few days later (ugh) for me and my fellow metro-folks, but all y'all outside of New York of Los Angeles have an entire extra week to wait. Bastards! It really just ought to have been out, what, ten years ago? But I'm not complaining... ahem... no, me? Never.
