Unless you have been hiding in a cave, you cannot have failed to notice that mega tragedy movie 2012 is all the rage. The movie explores the theory that the end of the earth will occur in the year 2012, as foretold by ancient civilisations and religions.
So far the movie has raked in a tidy $225 million from worldwide box office tickets. So much in fact that manager of 2012 Roland Emmerich is planning a follow on live internet TV series. If you havent already seen the movie then read on at your peril because it contains spoilers.
At the end of the movie, civilisation is wiped out, apart from a select few who are sustenance on some high-tech drifting arks whilst the earth is getting erased by a series of earthquakes and tsunamis. The TV show is planning to look at what happens next.
Roland Emmerich is planning to answer these questions in the 2012 TV spin-off that takes holding logically in 2013, after the last few survivors have landed.
The original stars of the movie – Cusack, Amanda Peet, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Thandie Newton etc. will not be starring in the tv show. Stars of the small cover 2012, Emmerich said, will be a “whole new set of people,” some plucked from the arks and those who survived in Africa (who never appeared in the movie). Entertainment Weekly recently reported that the show is macrocosm shopped to “Lost” home ABC, they How? have made no gossip on the theory.
Lets just hope they get the show made before the real 2012, or there may be nobody around to watch it.
