In their article reporting about the FX network gaining the television rights to the recently released Act Of Valor, Deadline says that the network has also gained the rights for several films that have been released early this year. Among the titles that were picked up included Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance (Neveldine/Taylor's non-sequel to the 2007 film Ghost Rider), Josh Trank's found footage/superhero flick Chronicle, and Tarsem Singh's Immortals (which stars Henry 'Superman' Cavill).

In addition, FX has also gained the rights to air the fourth Underworld installment, Underworld Awakening. The network also received the rights for many other releases such as This Means War, Red Tails, Safe House and Contraband. No word on when the movies will air on the network, but expect most (if not all) of these titles to begin their airtime within the next couple years. In the meantime, you can check any of them out in theaters now.

Chronicle is the only one of them that should actually be aired on TV.

Chronicle has made $95.8M so far.That's damn impressive.

Funny thing is, Ghost Rider SOV hasn't even reached $50 mil. worldwide yet. Made it to #6 domestically with $9 mil. this weekend (almost a 60% drop). Yep, definitely a bomb.

Oh, ok. So THIS is how I'll kinda see SOV for the first time. Some times FX is on in the background while doing other shit. Ghost Rider was on the other day come to think of it.

QuietStorm - 2/28/2012, 1:35 AM

Went to see Chronicle with my Lady. One she liked it. Two she said that the actor playing Matt had a chin like Cavil 3. She said the Apex Predator ain't got shit on, as she put it, "The Big Ass Predator who had the two shoulder guns!" I call that a good date. The Force is with her. I have chosen wisely.
