Spielberg Stalls Robopocalypse!!

Steven Spielberg's technothriller "Robopocalypse" has been postponed indefinately says THR.

Based on Daniel H. Wilson's novel, the cautionary tale explores the fate of the human race after a robot uprising. Wilson has a Ph.D. in robotics and grounded his tale in a heavy degree of authenticity derived from real robot technology.


Spielberg spox Marvin Levy states the project was "too important and the script is not ready, and it's too expensive to produce. It's back to the drawing board to see what is possible."

It's unclear what project will be next for Spielberg, his biopic Lincoln has earned more than $145 million at the worldwide box office and is an Oscar front-runner.

"Cloverfield's" Drew Goddard wrote the adapted script.

"Thor" star Chris Hemsworth was being eyed to star as were Anne Hathaway and Ben Whishaw

Ex Fox chief Tom Rothman was in talks to produce

Robopocalypse was set for release 25th April 2014.
