LOS ANGELES -- Emmett/Furla Films, a wholly owned subsidiary of Family Room Entertainment Corporation, is pleased to announce that Warner Brothers and Alcon Entertainment will theatrically release 'The Wicker Man' on September 1, 2006.
The picture, from writer/director Neil LaBute (‘Nurse Betty’), stars Nicolas Cage.
The suspense thriller is a remake of the 1973 UK cult classic. It follows the story of Sheriff Edward Malus (Nicolas Cage) as he investigates the disappearance of a young girl on a remote island off the coast of Maine.
Things and people are not as they seem on the island and when Sheriff Malus discovers evidence of pagan rituals his hope of unraveling the girl's disappearance become increasingly uncertain.
Co-chairmen, Randall Emmett and George Furla, stated: "We are very excited that Warner Brothers and Alcon feel as strongly about this project as we do. We believe that Neil and Nic have delivered a strong commercial horror-thriller which hopefully will appeal to a wide demographic."
