Versus (film) - Development

Development

Following the success of Ryuhei Kitamura's acclaimed independent film Down To Hell, interests in a sequel began to circulate. A script titled The Return: Down 2 Hell was subsequently written and development for the film began. However, the script surpassed the staff's expectations and The Return: Down 2 Hell eventually turned into Versus. However, a rewrite was impossible due to timing conflicts and the script for The Return: Down 2 Hell was instead used for Versus.

Famous quotes containing the word development:

    Fascism, the more it considers and observes the future and the development of humanity, quite apart from political considerations of the moment, believes neither in the possibility nor the utility of perpetual peace.
    Benito Mussolini (1883–1945)

    ... work is only part of a man’s life; play, family, church, individual and group contacts, educational opportunities, the intelligent exercise of citizenship, all play a part in a well-rounded life. Workers are men and women with potentialities for mental and spiritual development as well as for physical health. We are paying the price today of having too long sidestepped all that this means to the mental, moral, and spiritual health of our nation.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.
    Gail Sheehy (20th century)
