The new Dan Brown adaptation starts shooting next year
It’s been in the works for more than a year, and has had to wait for a gap in director/producer Ron Howard and star Tom Hanks’ schedules, but the third instalment of the Professor Robert Langdon film franchise, Inferno, is set to go before cameras in April.
Based once again on Dan Brown’s book, this latest outing finds Langdon in Italy, grappling with amnesia and a chilling puzzle revolving around Dante’s Inferno. He’ll face a new and cunning adversary and an ingenious riddle that pulls him into a landscape of classic art, secret passageways, and futuristic science.
Can he solve the problem before the world is forever changed? Given his track record, we’re going to guess he has a good shot. But he’ll need the help of Doctor Sienna Brooks, who must help him recover his memories if he’s to stop the madman.
David Koepp has written the adaptation for this one, which will be the first turn on screen for Langdon since 2009’s Angels And Demons. There’s still no word on whether Sony also wants to make the real third book in the series, The Lost Symbol, which given the progress on Inferno, appears doomed to stay lost.
