Shankar has been working on this project in secret for almost two years. Per The Wrap:

Since Shankar?s unofficial ?Dredd? project was done off-the-grid, it?s technically a part of his popular Bootleg Universe, which includes the short ?Punisher: Dirty Laundry? starring Thomas Jane and Ron Perlman, as well as ?Venom: Truth in Journalism,? which starred Ryan Kwanten as Spider-Man villain Eddie Brock.

We?re getting a seven part miniseries from producer Adi Shankar that will be released next month for free. There?s no word on if Karl Urban or Olivia Thirlby will be participating (though Thomas Jane came back for Dirty Laundry so I suppose it?s a possibility) but I guess we?ll all find out soon enough.

If a movie isn't an option then this is better than nothing yes?

 

Sure but just saying what would've been better for me personally.  Besides this sounds kind of low budget and I don't know how it'll turn out.  I thought the movie did well enough to be able to get a sequel but maybe not.

We're talking about the new one, not with Stallone and Schneider. You should check out the new one, it's way better.

 

I disagree. Stallone's Dredd was far closer to the comics I remember than Kurban's.  The new one tried to be too "real" itself of setting itself in the comic universe where it belongs.

 

The only thing wrong about Stallone's version was taking the helmet off.

Exactly. For the era the Stallone movie was pretty decent, though obviously it doesn't hold up to modern standards.

      Really? Despite the memory price rises, nothing can kill it? I thought something would.

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote

      Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
