It’s been a while since we’ve seen anything about Dominic Sena’s adaptation of Whiteout, based on the 1998 Oni Press miniseries by Greg Rucka and Steve Lieber. The shifting release date has made it slip off the radar, I guess.
But now ShockTillYouDrop.com has the movie’s international poster, which apparently popped up at Comic-Con. Now Warner Bros. has released it officially, and I like it. Well, except for the font.
Whiteout, which stars Kate Beckinsale and Gabriel Macht, is set to open on Sept. 11, 2009.

Whiteout has always been one of my top ten favorite graphic novels, and I have been looking forward to this for sometime. But I’m still confused at why they moved it from Aug 08 to April 09 and then now to Sept 11, 2009. Usually this is not a good sign for a movie when a studio continues to move a movie. Anyone know why they keep moving the date?

There was a trailer for this at Comic-Con 2007 and I wondered what happened to it. I never read the book, but the footage seemed scary enough to draw a crowd.

I don’t care anymore. Should’ve pushed up the release date, there’s no way i’ll even remember this in September.

RayJ, do you perhaps think that the movie studio might mention this film again between now and September 2009? Maybe even release a trailer? It’s just a hunch, but I think news about the movie will pop up between now and then.
So don’t worry, it’s not all on you to remember the date of the movie premiere.
