Tubi has announced sci-fi action film “Corrective Measures,” based on Grant Chastain’s graphic novel of the same name, which will star Bruce Willis and Michael Rooker and premiere in spring 2022.
Sean Patrick O’Reilly of “Howard Lovecraft” and “The Kingdom of Madness” will write, direct and produce the film, which is set in San Tiburon, the world’s most dangerous maximum-security penitentiary. The plot follows the monsters, cyborgs, and supervillains incarcerated in the prison, including wealthy genius Julius “The Lobe” Loeb (Willis) and corrupt warden Devlin (Rooker), who is after The Lobe’s riches. Dan Payne (“Watchmen”) and Brennan Mejia (“Power Rangers”) appear as Payback and Diego Diaz respectively, who increase tension between inmates and staff until anarchy erupts. Tom Cavanagh (“The Flash”), Kat Ruston (“The 100”), Kevin Zegers (“Rebel”) and Hayley Sales (“Deadpool 2”) also star.

True Detective star Stephen Dorff and The Edge of Seventeen‘s Blake Jenner have joined the Hawaiian production of Paradise City, which reps John Travolta and Bruce Willis’ first movie since 1994’s Pulp Fiction.
Willis plays renegade bounty hunter, Ryan Swan, who must carve his way through the Hawaiian crime world to wreak vengeance on the kingpin, played by Travolta, who murdered his father. I’m told the project is billed as being similar to Miami Vice but with bounty hunters instead of cops. Thai actress and model Praya Lundberg also stars.
Paradise City is produced by Corey Large, who also stars in the movie and co-wrote with Ed John Drake. BondIt Media Capital is financing with Large’s 308 Enterprises producing. Saban is handling domestic distribution with The Exchange overseeing foreign sales. EPs are Stephen Eads , Johnny Messner, Grady Craig, Matthew Helderman, and Luke Taylor. Brian O’Shea and Nat McCormick of The Exchange,...
