BREAKING: Universal Pictures, which jettisoned its Hasbro-top quality project Ouija over budget, has introduced inside a reconfigured version from the film.

Ouija is going to be created by Hasbro’s John Goldner and Bennett Schneir, Platinum Dunes partners Michael Bay, Kaira Larger and Andrew Form, and Blumhouse Productions. The second addition describes a great deal. Blumhouse is Jason Blum, the Paranormal Activity producer who signed an initial look deal at Universal, and it has introduced it in line using the type of budgets he done together with his films Paranormal Activity and Insidious. Now, Platinum Dunes makes low-cost/high-gross horror remakes such as the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and also the Amityville Horror, however in today’s Hollywood economy, a $100 million for Ouija is simply from touch. To place it in perspective, when Universal designed a gargantuan cope with Hasbro in the past, $5 million was the penalty payment due Hasbro when the studio didn’t meet certain due dates. That deal has passed by the wayside now that $5 million may be the entire budget from the picture. It doesn’t appear that Micrograms is in the center of this latest version. If you feel this really is isolated, it isn’t. Warner Bros, home from the mega-buck tent pole, gets in to the space. Vital, which first got it began around the studio level, is kicking up a notch using its Insurge division. Despite the fact that these found footage movies, from Project X to Chronicle or even the Demon Inside, don’t perform as strongly overseas, most of them have covered their budgets lengthy prior to the opening weekend has ended.

Person of Interest: Will Carter and Reese's New Partnership Last?
Taraji P. Henson, Jim Caviezel Over the last few episodes, CBS' Person of Interest has done something rather, well, interesting.Get more scoop on your favorite shows in our Winter TV previewThe hit freshman procedural has taken Taraji P. Henson's Detective Carter - the cop who spent the first half of the season hot on the trail of vigilantes Reese (Jim Caviezel) and Finch (Michael Emerson) - and turned her into the high-tech duo's partner in vigilantism. Creator and executive producer Jonathan Nolan acknowledges that, at the request of CBS, the twist has happened faster than he originally intended, but he insists it was always in the back of his mind."The pitch from the very beginning with this character was that you'd start with a little bit of Tommy Lee Jones from The Fugitive, and you'd wind up with a character closer spiritually to Commissioner Gordon," Nolan tells TVGuide.com. "We didn't want these relationships to be ready-formed from the pilot. The network gave us a great deal of latitude in terms of earning this relationship. But the plan is still unfolding."Indeed, to this point, Carter only knows as much as Reese or Finch is willing to tell her about their little operation. Additionally, Carter has no idea that her fellow cop Fusco (Kevin Chapman) is also secretly feeding police information to Reese. Naturally, those types of secrets could quickly derail this new arrangement.Friday Night Lights' Matt Lauria becomes a Person of Interest"These relationships are not fixed," Nolan says. "There are no guarantees about any of these characters. Just because characters are allies now, doesn't mean they're going to remain allies."Unlike Reese and Finch, who were always operating outside the law, Carter is a sworn officer, which makes her side job all the more tricky, not to mention dangerous. This is especially true in Thursday's episode (9/8c, CBS), which features the return of CIA Agent Mark Snow (Michael Kelly), the operative who shot Reese after Carter put him on Reese's trail. This time around, Snow may have just as many questions about Carter as he does about Reese."One of the fun dilemmas of our show is you have these people doing the right thing, but in unorthodox terms and illegal terms," Nolan says. "There are influences within her office, or various other law enforcement agencies, that are going to start to inquire as to what she knows. What sort of position [does] that put her in?"Person of Interest airs Thursdays at 9/8c on CBS.

Benbihy embraces 'Berlin, I Love You'
The makers of a cinematic ode to the German capital, originally titled "Love Berlin -- How We Met," have reached an agreement with French producer Emmanuel Benbihy, the creative force behind the "Cities of Love" franchise that includes 2006's "Paris, je t'aime" and 2009's "NY, I Love You." Producers Steffen Aumueller and Claus Clausen of Munich-based the Very Useful Co. announced the Berlin project at the Berlinale two years ago as being unrelated to Benbihy's series. That has now changed, along with the title. The project will now move forward as "Berlin, I Love You," an episodic film that explores love in the German metropolis. Benbihy exec produces; Clausen and Aumueller produce alongside Josef Steinberger of Berlin-based Rheingold Films as well as Katharina Kowalewski and Edda Reiser. "After lots of discussions and work behind the scenes, we are glad this film will finally lift off as it would have been a shame to give up on such a wonderful project," Clausen said. "Berlin, I Love You" will be the third film in the franchise after the Paris and NY pics. The production will comprise 10 short love stories directed by established helmers, each set in a different neighborhood of the city with intermediate scenes telling an overarching story. Among the directors expected to participate in the project is Oren Moverman, who received the Silver Bear at the 2009 Berlinale. The project will also feature some 20 German and international thesps. "Each director will provide his own perspective and style, reflecting the richness and fascination of Berlin, its landscape and its people," Clausen said. "This blend of creative and cultural perspective will prove to be one of the film's most powerful resources." Added Benbihy: "I am thrilled that the city of Berlin will be one of our cities of love as I have always envisioned it. This is one of the most creative and lively cities in the world filled with diversity and a unique history that calls for love and reconciliation. It also has an incredible A-list film festival which defends film diversity in a big way." Benbihy's U.S.-based Ever So Close Inc. is working on planned Cities of Love projects in Shanghai, Rio and Jerusalem. Contact Ed Meza at ed.meza@mannaa.de
