Artist International, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hollywood
Studios International (PINKSHEETS: HYWS), client
John Hyams has signed on to direct the mixed martial
arts crime drama "
Dragon Eyes" for Joel Silver and Robert Zemeckis' Dark Castle
Entertainment in conjunction with After Dark and IM Global. "It's a
testament to John's talent to be offered back to back jobs,
including a 3D theatrical reboot of the 'Universal Soldier'
franchise months after his directorial debut," said
Dave Brown, President of Artist International's Motion
Picture Literary Department. "John is quickly becoming a brand and
we're honored to represent such an emerging talent; it's exciting
to think what's next." The film, which stars champion fighter
Cung Le, is scheduled to begin shooting in
Baton Rouge, Louisiana this month.
"Dragon Eyes" tells the tale of a man (Le) who unites two rival
gangs from New Orleans' poverty-stricken neighborhoods to fight
back against the corrupt law enforcement officials who have been
exploiting them to combat each other. The film is a modern American
version of Akira Kurosawa's "Yojimbo."
Following the completion of "Dragon Eyes," Hyams will helm
"Universal Soldier: A New Dimension," marking his return to the
franchise after his directorial debut, 2009's "Universal Soldier:
Regeneration."
