Eli Roth, who directed a fabulous faux trailer titled Thanksgiving that appeared in 2007's Grindhouse double feature, is finally turning that trailer into a feature film!
After word circulated today on the fanboy sites that Eli Roth has been supplanted by Deadpool’s Tim Miller on the long gestating Lionsgate vidgame adaptation Borderlands, allow Deadline to lend a little insight to what is actually happening. Roth handed over the reins on two weeks of reshoots to his pal Miller, because he has to get going with Thanksgiving, the horror film based on a mock trailer that Roth made for the Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez Grindhouse film. Roth has not been fired, despite a flurry of speculative reports to the contrary.
Who's ready to CARVE something?
