Does our planet have an expiration date? The Mayan calendar ends in 2012. While some believe a global cataclysm will take place on or about 21 December 2012, most scholars have dismissed this as a misinterpretation.
Hollywood thinks otherwise.
John Cusack is in negotiations to play the lead character in fictional 2012, where a large group of people face natural disasters like erupting volcanoes and killer typhoons.
The movie has some big bucks behind it (What, you thought the world could end with CGI?!)
Cusack would reprise his turn as a limo driver (wasn’t he one in Identity?) and shooting is slated to begin this July. It will also be his second movie with numbers as the title - he was also in Stephen King’s 1408.
Since this doesn’t feel like a feel-good Christmas-time release, we have a hunch the movie will open during the summer.
