"Return To Silent Hill" Finally Lands a Release Date
Terrifier trio Cineverse, Bloody Disgusting, and Iconic Events Releasing are reteaming on the domestic theatrical releases of horror reboots "Return to Silent Hill" and "Silent Night, Deadly Night".
Based on the popular video game series by Konami, "Return to Silent Hill" will be released January 23.
The psychological horror thriller stars Jeremy Irvine and Hannah Emily Anderson. Returning to the Silent Hill universe are director/co-writer Christophe Gans and Akira Yamaoka, original composer for the game franchise.
"Return to Silent Hill" is the third installment in the game-to-screen horror film franchise, marking its 20th year since the first film, Silent Hill, was released in theaters. Starring Radha Mitchell and Sean Bean and directed by Christophe Gans, Silent Hill topped the box office in its opening weekend in 2006. "Silent Hill: Revelation" followed in 2012, directed by M.J. Bassett and starring Kit Harington and Adelaide Clemens.
It follows James (Irvine), a man broken after his relationship with the love of his life, Mary (Anderson), ends. When a mysterious letter from her calls him back to Silent Hill, he finds a once-recognizable town transformed by an unknown evil. While James desperately searches for Mary, he encounters terrifying creatures and begins to unravel the mystery of what happened to the town.
Produced by Victor Hadida of Davis Films, Molly Hassell of Hassell Free Productions, and David Wulf, the film is financed by Davis Films and Ashland Hill Media Finance. The Veterans handle international rights.
"Silent Night, Deadly Night" character Billy Chapman will make his return to theaters on December 12.
The reboot, which began production in April, is written and directed by Mike P. Nelson (Wrong Turn) and stars Rohan Campbell as Billy and Ruby Modine as Pamela, along with Mark Acheson, David Lawrence Brown, and David Tomlinson.
Iconic Events says the movie will have an unrated wide release.
"Silent Night, Deadly Night" is produced by the original 1984 TriStar film's producers Scott Schneid and Dennis Whitehead, and New Dimension's Jamie R. Thompson, Rebel 6's Erik Bernard and White Bear Films' Jeremy Torrie, with executive producers Steven Schneider, Anthony Masi, and Sarah Eilts.
Terrifier's Brandon Hill and Brad Miska will oversee Cineverse and will executive-produce alongside Erick Opeka and Yolanda Macias, Bondit Media Capital's Matthew Helderman and Luke Taylor. Financing came from Bondit Media Capital and Royal Bank of Canada. Distribution outside of North America is being handled by Sixth Dimension, StudioCanal's genre label.
When it was released in 1984, the first "Silent Night, Deadly Night" movie became one of the most controversial movies of the year. In a series of letters, parents demanded that the film be pulled from theaters.
The film charts the story of a young man who goes on a murderous rampage dressed as Santa after being released from an orphanage.
'We have been anything but silent about our mission to champion proven IP as a central piece of our theatrical strategy,' said Cineverse Chief Motion Pictures Officer Yolanda Macias. 'These two films will represent event viewing that meet fan demand for new releases from their favorite franchises, and an opportunity for them to reach a new audience.'
Said Mark Rupp, CFO/COO and co-founder of Iconic Events Releasing: 'Cineverse's decision to release Silent Night, Deadly Night as an unrated wide theatrical title reflects a proven strategy that continues to resonate with genre fans and deliver results and we're confident it will be well-positioned for the holiday season. Return to Silent Hill hits theaters at the perfect time following the successful recent launch of the Silent Hill 2 game remake that the movie is based on, while also celebrating the 20th anniversary of the start of the horror film franchise.'

Production begins in September in Australia. Lorenzo di Bonaventura is producing with executive producers Stephen Shafer and Greg Cohen for di Bonaventura Pictures.

New "Air Bud" Movie in Works, Eyes 2026 Theatrical Release
Yara Sameh One of the world's favorite golden retrievers is returning after a long absence. 'Air Bud Returns,' the latest film in the athletic canine saga, has been announced by Cineverse and Air Bud Entertainment. The film has been set for a summer 2026 release. It will be written and directed by Robert Vince, who founded ABE. Vince was a producer on all of the original films (including franchise spinoffs like 'Santa Paws') and wrote and directed ten of them. The original 1997 film was produced independently and Disney picked it up for distribution. The family-friendly title became a sleeper hit and the franchise became a fixture on the rental market. 'Anyone who follows the box office knows that we are experiencing an important moment at the intersection of '90s and early 2000s nostalgia and millennial parents looking for family-friendly movies to share with their kids,' Cineverse chief motion pictures officer Yolanda Macias said in a statement. 'With the return of an iconic franchise that has remained popular since Robert created the OG Air Bud more than 28 years ago, we are offering a real treat that will resonate with fans across generations. This is the ideal first project for us as we expand our theatrical strategy to the kids and family category.' Per the press release, 'In 'Air Bud Returns,' 12-year old Jacob has always dreamt of being a star basketball player. After the passing of his father, that dream felt even more impossible. But everything changes when he and his mom move into his dad's childhood home in Fernfield. There, Jacob discovers an original VHS of the 'Air Bud' movie in his father's belongings and has a chance meeting of a stray golden retriever he names Buddy. Together they embark on a journey of healing, unite a team of misfits, and chase a championship. Through it all they learn to play from the heart, believe in each other, and always take the shot!'. ''Air Bud Returns' isn't just another sequel or remake — it's a unique story,' Vince said in a statement. 'This movie will engage nostalgic Air Bud fans while introducing a new generation to the beloved basketball-playing golden retriever, Buddy. It builds upon the legacy of the OG 'Air Bud' with all the fun, the magic, heartwarming scenes, and Buddy playing basketball. More than anything, it's a deeply human story about a dog and boy, centered on themes of adaptation, redemption, and teamwork.' 'Air Bud Returns' is the first kids and family feature from Cineverse. The film is set to begin filming this summer in Fort Langley, British Columbia, where the original was also shot. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks
