Miller will be directing AREA 52, based on the popular comic book by Brian Haberlin. Wait, so is this like Area 54, but not? Hold on, and you’ll find out…
At a storage facility in Antarctica that houses top-secret alien wares after Nevada’s Area 51 is done testing them, an Army nurse must restore order after a mercenary attack has unleashed a menacing terror.
Ah, so it’s related to Area 54 in some regards. Nice! Though I find it odd that the other ‘areas’ are in Nevada, and this one is all the way up in bumf*ck Antartica! That’s pretty crazy right there, but I can dig it. I mean, the story sounds like there’s some serious potential to rock and possibly a brand new franchise (depending on how well this one does, of course).
Plus, this nurse who happens to kick all kinds of ass and looks like she’s ready to make brain matter artwork on the wall will surely be nice to look at on the big screen… I wonder who they’ll cast? Someone along the likes of Kate Beckinsale, Milla Jovovich, and Angelina Jolie would be ideal, though they may be going for an unknown… but they haven’t said either way, so I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!
That’s it for now, stick around for more AREA 52 as it becomes available!
