After wrapping production in Australia, we haven't heard much from Lionsgate's upcoming action movie I, Frankenstein, based on the graphic novel by Kevin Grevioux (who also co-wrote the film's screenplay with director Stuart Beattie). The film, which is a modern, action-based take on the Frankenstein story, stars Aaron Eckhart, Bill Nighy, Miranda Otto and Yvonne Strahovski. Now, reports are coming in revealing that Lionsgate have pushed back the horror movie. Originally slated for a February 22nd release, I, Frankenstein is now set to hit theaters September 13th, 2013.

Aw, nuts & bolts! Lionsgate's I, FRANKENSTEIN will now walk among us 9/13/13, instead of 2/22.

I'm not really surprised by this news, since we have yet to see any marketing for the film. Do you plan on checking out I, Frankenstein when it hits theaters?

Wonder if its for a crappy 3D conversion so they can screw people out of their money
