According to Moviehole, the British sci-fi film “Transmission” is being described as “Pitch Black meets 28 Days Later”, which sounds like way too much pressure to put on a sci-fi movie, but hey, that’s what they’re saing, so that’s what we’re going with it.
“Transmission” is from Giles Alderson and Martin Owen, and will involve an alien invasion during a solar eclipse. The film will be shot in 3D, and will star Bob Hoskins, Jason Flemying, Talulah Riley, and Willem Dafoe. Dafoe is not quite set in stone, but is apparently in negotiations to join the cast.
