Slade Eclipsed By Shadow?

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, director David Slade is the fronrunner to call action on the new film adaptation of "The Shadow"says Latino Review.

The reboot will go back to the roots of the character in the 30's.Sam Raimi will produce. The duo previously worked together on the underrated 30 Days of Night

The previous film adaptation of the character happened in 1994 with Alec Baldwin as the pulp vigilante

Meanwhile Entertainment Weekly reports that four months from its release on June 30, 2010--Eclipse editor Art Jones who has worked with Slade on his two previous films, has been replaced by Nancy Richardson.

Seems that Jones delivered a cut that the studio found "very good" but they wanted a "stronger edit". Richardson edited Catherine Hardwicke’s original pic in the series and was brought in because she's apparently better at balancing the action and emotional elements of the story.

Ouch!
