In a recent
interview with Fangoria, prolific horror film producer Don Carmody gave an update on the sequel to the 2006 film adaptation of
Silent Hill. Things are going
less than awesome, as Carmody explained production is "a little stalled now because of [writer/director] Roger Avary's [legal problems], so a little unsure yet." Carmody is referring to
Avary's one-year prison sentence, which he received after being charged with vehicular manslaughter following a fatal 2008 car accident.
Carmody went on to explain, "the original plan was Roger writing and polishing the screenplay, and when he had finished his thing, we'd begin full-blown preproduction. I'm not sure what's going on with that. We know we want to make
Silent Hill 2 and have a basic outline for it. We'll have to see." According to the
Ventura County Sheriff's Department website, Avary has been released from prison -- whether or not he's in the screenwriting mood remains to be seen.
