"PICTURE LOCK Sorry for the radio silence. I have been incredibly busy finishing Southland Tales and prepping The Box simultaneously. We are hoping to begin production in early March, 2007 in Virginia. After almost a year of editing, we have finally locked picture on Southland Tales! 2 hrs 17 min. The final cut is 27 minutes shorter than the "work-in-progress" version that premiered at Cannes. I am very happy with this edit, as we have done a significant amount of work to solve the Rubiks cube narrative. Justin Timberlake just recorded the final voice-over this Sunday. We still have some visual effects work to do... but expect a release date and a trailer soon! I hope everyone is enjoying Southland Tales - Book II: Fingerprints. Book III is going to the printer in about a week, and I believe that it is the best of the three (cerainly the longest). I can't believe it is almost over... and that we have made it to the end with our sanity intact. Well... perhaps not completely intact. I leave for Cape Canaveral tomorrow to attend my first space shuttle launch. Expect some big announcements soon!" - Richard Kelly

Wow. Good news. I thought the Box was still tied up in negotiations. I think that will be a really good movie. Glad to hear about the editing too, I think Southland Tales will be a lot stronger now that Kelly's had a chance to solidify the narrative.
