Paul Haslinger: Death Race

Paul Haslinger has landed what is possibly his biggest feature film project so far: Death Race, the upcoming sci-fi action spectacle directed by Resident Evil director Paul W.S. Anderson. The film, which is prestigiously produced by Jeremy Bolt, Roger Corman, Tom Cruise and Paula Wagner, takes place in a future American prison where the inmates are forced to compete in a deadly car race. Jason Statham, Joan Allen and Ian McShane constitute the top of the cast. The film is a remake of the 1975 cult movie Death Race 2000, which was also produced by Roger Corman. Paul Haslinger's recent credits include Shoot 'Em Up, Prom Night and Vacancy. Among his other upcoming films are thriller While She Was Out (starring Kim Basinger) and dance drama Make It Happen. Death Race will be released by Universal Pictures on September 26.
