A new The Shadow movie?
There´s a rumour going that now Sam Raimi is done with Spiderman, he will do a The Shadow movie next. It doesn´t seem implausible, he has been wanting to do one for years I believe. Also with superhero-movies grossing as much as they do, it´s probably much easier for him to get backing today.
I must admit I´m one of the few who actually enjoyed the Alec Baldwin movie of The Shadow, but I wouldn´t mind seeing one that´s more Nolan than Burton. Actually a lot of the plot could end up similar to Batman Begins I imagine.

Sam has 12 movies on his plate right now, and I don't remember The Shadow being one of them. It was big news when he said "I just can't churn out a good Spiderman sequel by next summer so I quit."
On the upside, Evil Dead (the remake) is up in pre-production again.

Fox has bought the Shadow movie rights, so something seems to be happening.

I enjoyed the Baldwin version of The Shadow.. but I must admit it seemed to be lacking..
I'm not at all opposed to Raimi giving it a try.. I'd be interested to see what he made of it. .
I guess we'll just have to wait and see if anything comes of it. .

I love Baldwin's The Shadow. It's one of my favorite movies. I really can't imagine that they could make anything that could exceed it. Of course I was skeptical about Batman Begins and the new Star Trek movie and both turned out great. So we'll just have to see.

I also like the Baldwin Shadow.
It of course was not perfect, but it was a enjoyable effort.
