Just a few short days ago Doug talked about Darabont’s Law Abiding Citizen, a suspense revenge flick with Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler.
Well Foxx and Butler were not confirmed but Darabont was. Yeah. Was. He is now said to have quit.
Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption) has quit the Law Abiding Citizen production. There is no word on who will replace him.
No solid details on how this happened but if the rumours are true the deal got ugly and words were spoken, the last of which appear to be Darabont offering up “Take this job and shove it” (also speculation)
Frank Darabont wrote and directed one of my favourite all time dramas, the Shawshank Redemption. When I heard he was attached to this, I was more than willing to give it a chance. If he is in fact off this project than it too falls off my radar.
