You are not wrong. It was released a few years ago and was to star David Henrie. Now from reading the press, it seems that this info was left out. IMO, this is actually a good thing. Henrie may not be attached anymore, and I would probably guess either is Disney. I think Scott is taking a lead role here and getting the project started as a producer. Then you get your cast, director and financing and take a key role in how the movie is made.
I do think there was enough changes from the original press release from a few years ago to warrant this new release.
Dilution is never fun, and I don't like it any more than anyone else, but until some projects get going and some money starts coming in, it is what it is.

Nice portfolio. He would be an excellent choice.
IMO
Jet Li is too old. We need a fresh new face, an asian martial artist to play the lead. It was suppose to be David Henre, but Im hoping he dropped out or got canned. It should be an Asian guy, thats how the main character is portraited in the comic.
watch the video.

Platinum Studios Announces Development of "The Weapon" as a Major Motion Picture
Jan. 31, 2012, 9:03 a.m. EST
LOS ANGELES, CA, Jan 31, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Platinum Studios, Inc. PDOS +7.69% , an entertainment company that controls an international library of thousands of comic book characters which it adapts, produces and licenses for all forms of media, confirmed today they are now developing sold out comic book series "The Weapon," to bring to the big screen. Scott Rosenberg, CEO of Platinum Studios and producer of Cowboys & Aliens, will act as producer on the film. Platinum Studios stands today as one of the largest rights holders of exploitable comic book characters in the world, still independent of Hollywood studio ownership.
"The Weapon" is about a martial arts enthusiast, Tommy Zhou, that has discovered a means to create solid objects from light -- and invented a superhero persona to promote it, The Weapon! Not believing the legends his grandfather told him as a child, Zhou's inventions unsuspectingly make him the target of a millennia-old assassin cult that's convinced he's unlocked the ancient mystical techniques of the Order of Wu-Shi-'The Way of the Weapon.'
"We believe 'The Weapon' will be an attractive project for both international film financers and Hollywood producers," says Scott Rosenberg. "This property is one of those with enormous franchise potential."
"The Weapon" is written by New York Times bestselling author Fred Van Lente. Mr. Van Lente is also the bestselling author of "Marvel Zombies," "Incredible Hercules" (with Greg Pak), "Odd Is On Our Side" (with Dean R. Koontz), as well as the "Cowboys and Aliens" graphic novel in which the box office hit was based on.

"We are excited about bringing audiences into the vast mysterious world of the ocean's depths for what we hope will be an edge-of-your seat experience," said Adam Goodman, DreamWorks' President of Production. "Our team at DreamWorks looks forward to this new association with Platinum Studios, and Kurtzman and Orci."
"No sea horses or tridents here," said producers Kurtzman and Orci, "The comic brings a fresh, techno-thriller approach to a story that holds all the tenets of a classic us-versus-them alien invasion movie."

** According to Variety: Platinum now controls the rights to that property after a film version was initially set up at DreamWorks with Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci on board to produce (they also co-produced "Cowboys & Aliens"). Atlantis Rising is not with Dreamworks any more. This info has not been confirmed by Platinum Studios.

"UNIQUE"
Platinum Studios is also currently partnered with Walt Disney Pictures to develop "Unique" into a full-length feature film. The graphic novel was recently named a finalist in ForeWord Magazine's 2007 Book of the Year Awards. Ballantine Books at the Random House Publishing Group, announced today that Villard Books will publish a graphic novel based on Platinum Studios "Unique" series for worldwide distribution. Unique is the second graphic novel out of the Platinum Studios library set for worldwide distribution. In January 2008, the company announced a worldwide publishing deal for Cowboys & Aliens with HarperCollins. Created by Platinum Studios CEO, Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, and scripted by Dean Motter (Mister X, Terminal City, Batman: Nine Lives) with illustrations by Dennis Calero (X-Factor), "Unique" centers around the extraordinary life of Jon Geoffries. Convinced all his life that he was schizophrenic because of strange visions of another world, Geoffries learns that he is actually seeing the Earth's twin, a parallel world in another dimension, and that he is Unique; one of few people with no doppelganger in the other world... and the power to move between them at will.
"In my experience, the Random House Publishing Group is one of the consummate distributors of books worldwide," said Sean O'Reilly, who oversees publishing and animation at Platinum Studios. "Our partnership further demonstrates our ability to market our titles to a global audience."
"We're pleased to be publishing Unique," said Villard acquiring editor Dallas Middaugh. Motter and Calero have created an exciting piece of work, and we're thrilled to be able to help get it to a wider audience."

"KILLING DEMONS"
Atmosphere Entertainment MM and Platinum Studios To Produce Killing Demons Live-Action Film. Producers Mark Canton, chairman and chief executive officer of Atmosphere Entertainment MM, and Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, chairman of Platinum Studios, an entertainment company that controls the world's largest independent library of comic book characters, announced today that they will develop Platinum's graphic novel "Killing Demons" as a feature film. In "Killing Demons" a man, whose family was slain by supernatural creatures when he was a child, devotes his life to hunting down the demonic creatures that prey on humanity. Canton and Rosenberg will produce the Atmosphere Entertainment MM and Platinum Studios production. Atmosphere MM's head of production, Steve Barnett will be Executive Producer and Platinum Studios' Director of Development Aaron Severson and Director of Production Jay Burns will be Co-Producing.
Killing Demons is the kind of movie I really like making," said Canton. "It's in the vein of Men In Black - an exciting, heroic big-screen adventure with comedic moments, lots of action and franchise potential. It will be a great addition to Atmosphere's slate of upcoming films and I'm looking forward to producing it with Scott, Steve and the Platinum team."
Men In Black was a huge success and we hope to raise Killing Demons to the same level," said Rosenberg. "It is great to have the opportunity to work with Mark again, especially with such a unique and intriguing project as Killing Demons.

COMPLETED MOVIES:
Cowboys and Aliens:
Blockbuster filmmaker Jon Favreau directs Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford in an event film for summer 2011 that crosses the classic Western with the alien-invasion movie in a blazingly original way: Cowboys & Aliens. Joined by an arsenal of top moviemakers-Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci-he brings an all-new action thriller that will take audiences into the Old West, where a lone cowboy leads an uprising against a terror from beyond our world.
PLOT: 1875. New Mexico Territory. A stranger (Craig) with no memory of his past stumbles into the hard desert town of Absolution. The only hint to his history is a mysterious shackle that encircles one wrist. What he discovers is that the people of Absolution don't welcome strangers, and nobody makes a move on its streets unless ordered to do so by the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde (Ford). It's a town that lives in fear. The town of Absolution is about to experience fear it can scarcely comprehend as the desolate city is attacked by marauders from the sky. Screaming down with breathtaking velocity and blinding lights to abduct the helpless one by one, these monsters challenge everything the residents have ever known. Now, the stranger they rejected is their only hope for salvation. As this gunslinger slowly starts to remember who he is and where he's been, he realizes he holds a secret that could give the town a fighting chance against the alien force. With the help of the elusive traveler Ella (Olivia Wilde), he pulls together a posse comprised of former opponents-townsfolk, Dolarhyde and his boys, outlaws and Apache warriors-all in danger of annihilation. United against a common enemy, they will prepare for an epic showdown for survival.
The screenplay for Cowboys & Aliens is by Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman & Damon Lindelof and Mark Fergus & Hawk Ostby, from a screen story by Fergus & Ostby and Steve Oedekerk. It is based on Platinum Studios' "Cowboys & Aliens" by Scott Mitchell Rosenberg. Grazer, Howard, Kurtzman, Orci and Rosenberg produce. Spielberg, Favreau, Denis L. Stewart, Bobby Cohen, Randy Greenberg and Ryan Kavanaugh executive produce.

Info on Conference call for January 3. 2012
Number to be provided: IMO only
Scott Rosenberg
Im sure we are all still here, probably just sitting on the sidelines, (I know I am), waiting on some news. I just dont see any at this moment. Im sure as soon as we get something, it will be back to our usual debates.
IMO
Good point on the CC. Needs a repost.
Add this to the list of things happening at this moment:
"In the licensing industry, often the success of a brand is determined by what happens after a film's release. With "Cowboys & Aliens," several of the licensees expanded upon their initial plans after the film came out. Gameloft, the European company that distributes its games in over 100 countries and employs over 4,000 developers, first launched its "Cowboys & Aliens" games on certain feature phones ("feature" meaning not "smart") and, after the film's release, decided to start distributing on Android phones as well. I've actually downloaded it onto my phone, and I love it!
"Additionally, Mako Games was initially releasing the game just on the iOS platforms, including iPhone, iPad, and iPod and we've now allowed it to expand onto Android tablets.
"Internally, Platinum has been aggressively restructuring our business to improve efficiency and lower overhead. In that regard, we have retained Rutledge Law Center LTD. to replace a lot of want we were initially doing in-house and to represent Platinum in its business and contract law matters. Rutledge Law Center LTD. is compensated for those services in restricted stock -- not cash. This has improved our short-term cash flow, is substantially improving our workflow, and aligns the corporation's operation with the long-term interest of us shareholders. Additionally, the corporation's number of authorized shares has been increased to allow us to strategically negotiate settlements with certain of the corporation's debtors (in addition, of course, to complying with requirements that enough shares be authorized to cover existing convertible notes).
"I am also pleased to announce that Platinum just entered into a licensing deal with Brand Xpand to develop, operate and fulfill orders for dozens of "Cowboys & Aliens" themed merchandise through our website. http://brand-xpand.com/
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Platinum-Studios-Conducts-iw-1758849437.html?x=0
Platinum Studios does not own Top Cow. Top Cow is their own independent production company. Platinum only owns (has a contract) a portion of the titles, film only, such as Magdalena, Aphrodite IX, Vice, Witchblade, Necromancer and Hellbound, to name a few. The newer titles they do not own. Top Cow has alot of other titles that are under different movie companies or simply in comic form.
At this time, I do not think Artifacts is located under Platinum, but that does not mean something could be negotiated.
IMO
BTW, looks like Platinum has added some new stuff to their webpage.
Interesting. US Govt coverup of UFOs. My opinion.
Heck yea.
Platinum had a deal back in 2004 with the UFO Magazine, so its not reaching that, especially today, Platinum could come up with a good solid UFO TV series, maybe even including it in thebAtlantis Rising movie or comic. Should be interesting next year.
IMO
http://www.allbusiness.com/services/motion-pictures/4889252-1.html
http://www.ufoupdateslist.com/2004/jul/m31-025.shtml
It has also been on the history channel, in between the history of UFOs series, WB yesterday during supernatural, and on SciFi channel(Indiana Jones run yesterday and today.)
IMO
Hopefully, Scott will also include it on their site later for those who missed it, but it may take a few days for that.
