Through six sequels, that lesson continued to be hammered home with dinosaurs of varying cuteness, and blockbuster thrills, but humanity still hasn\u2019t learned. With the 2026 movie schedule<\/a> starting to come into focus, perhaps next year will be when we decide to stop tampering with scientific breakthroughs; especially when one of our teachers this time is Liam \u201cThe Naked Gun\u201d Neeson.<\/p>\n Welcome to the world of Cold Storage, a 2019 novel from David Koepp, the notable screenwriter from the Jurassic Park universe<\/a>. Adapting his own novel for the screen, Koepp\u2019s tale of a contagion that could end the world sounds a lot like Michael Crichton\u2019s The Andromeda Strain. However, as you\u2019ll see in the trailer provided below, this new tale puts more of a Slither style spin on things:<\/p>\n Will our Taken hero calming and\/or threatening someone over the phone ever stop being amusing? The not-so-serious tone of Cold Storage certainly helps intrigue me into investing in this picture, as it allows Liam Neeson to be very non-chalant about his heroism. It\u2019s not quite the flat-out goofiness I praised in my Naked Gun review<\/a>, but that\u2019s not a knock.<\/p>\n Rather, it\u2019s a way to set expectations for this upcoming horror\/comedy ride, which is so adjacent to Neeson\u2019s action hero era that it feels like a knowing parody in its own right. “But, Mike,” you’re probably asking your screen, “what about Liam Neeson’s supposed action movie retirement<\/a>? Also, I was promised zombies! Where are the zombies?”<\/p>\n Well, I suppose we can get to the subject of how Stranger Things’ Joe Keery and Broadchurch alum Georgina Campbell have to contend with that nightmarish contagion, especially when it seems to do everything from decay its victims to making them outright explode. Those of you squeamish around gore (no matter how green it may be) may want to skip over the next image:<\/p>\n Credit: Samuel Goldwyn Films \/ StudioCanal<\/p>\n Yeah, that\u2019s what we\u2019re dealing with here, folks: a good old fashioned desert outbreak of a lab-created nightmare, with a handful of people standing between us and extinction. If that\u2019s not a Michael Crichton-coded adventure, then my name is Liam Neeson. Except it isn\u2019t\u2026 and I totally know what I\u2019m talking about here.<\/p>\n 2026 already looked like a fantastic year for upcoming book to movie adaptations<\/a>, and that\u2019s just me echoing the enthusiasm surrounding Project Hail Mary\u2019s <\/u>recent trailer<\/u><\/a> alone. If David Koepp has engineered a dark comedy that takes Crichton bioethics and splices them with a James Gunn-style sensibility, with Mr. Neeson playing a deadpan supporting character, then sign me up.<\/p>\n Credit: Samuel Goldwyn Films \/ StudioCanal<\/p>\n Unfortunately, Cold Storage doesn\u2019t have a release date just yet, so we\u2019ll have to sit tight for more information. However, with the trailer being released this early, that could be a sign that the studio is bullish on what it’s got in the can. So try to contain your excitement by seeing something already on the 2025 movie calendar<\/a>; like, say, The Naked Gun, which is currently in theaters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission.
