"Surrogates" is the upcoming science fiction feature, based on the 2005–2006 Top Shelf comic book series of the same name, directed by Jonathan "Terminator 3" Mostow, starring actor Bruce Willis.

Premise of the film is set in the year 2017, where humans live in near-total isolation, only communicating with other people through remotely-controlled robotic bodies that serve as 'surrogates', designed as better-looking versions of their human operators.

'Agent Greer' (Willis) is an FBI investigator who enlists the aid of his own surrogate to look into the death of a college student who invented the surrogates.

The case grows more complicated when more humans are eliminated and their surrogates destroyed.

Greer discovers that in order to actually catch the criminal responsible, he will have to physically venture outside the safety of his home for the first time in years, enlisting the aid of another agent to track his target down.

"Surrogates" is scheduled for a September 25, 2009 release.

Will "Green Lantern" Power Up In Toronto...?

Reports suggest that Pinewood Toronto (formerly Filmport), the largest (and newest) indoor film studio facility in North America, may host Warners upcoming adaptation of DC Comics "Green Lantern".

The film's scheduled shoot in Australia (where the poorly-performing "Superman Returns" was lensed), could push ballooning production costs north of $150 million.

At issue is that the film would no longer qualify for certain tax credits, making an Australian start more expensive than filming in Toronto, where the Ontario government is offering generous tax breaks for the new "Resident Evil: Afterlife" feature, Steven Spielberg's untitled alien invasion series for TNT, Universal's "Scott Pilgrim" and producer M. Knight Shyamalan's "Devil"
.

The fact that Canadian actor Ryan Reynolds has already been cast as 'Hal Jordan', aka 'Green Lantern' will also go a long way towards sweetening up a Canadian film tax credit package.
