Very proud of Lovers Stages. Turned out to be very good! Tamara and the entire cast should pat themselves on the back.

Bedtime Stories II is one of the next Collins film coming up. If I recall anything from the previous pitch one of the stories involved a more violent, bloody horrific version of Hansel and Gretel. As if the original Hansel and Gretel wasn't horrific enough.

And L.A. Wolf 2 makes its return and I must say I'm not all that excited for it. I kinda just want it to come and go and not be reminded of it like a few of my other mistakes of movies. It's not that I don't want it to be released at all, we're just still feeling the sting of all the cast and director problems we've been having just to get this movie made. So much frustration and drama occurs on these projects that you just want it all to be over and done with.
That's where this special edition of Rumor Has It comes into play. Taken from a hollywood magazine article:

due to all of the casting and director problems there might not be another L.A. Wolf. Josh Collins states there was nothing personal about the changing of director David Fincher for the next installment, but David took it as such. Collins wanted to try something different about film series' and have different directors and cast(besides the most recurring characters) for each film. When the plan to have Abrams direct the second one failed, production was coming so quickly that Josh needed a director and was going to try to call David and axe his plans to have each film be directed by a different person. David was already hurt about not directing the second one that he told Josh to go you-know-what to himself. This made Josh sweat even more as the production was getting closer to the start date that he called Ayers, who accepted the job along with the extra pay out of Josh's own wallet to seal the deal. That's what happened, the rumor now is Josh wondering if he wants to continue with the series after all of the casting and directorial issues from the last two films.
