Christina Inman On Dragonball

Friday, March 28th, 2008

Movieland spoke to Christina Inman, the manager of Fox in Mexico, and she shared a few details about Dragonball.

- Release Date: April 8, 2009

- It can be taken as official and that date is set in stone.

- Sequels

- We will soon be addressing this hard and rush to finish the post-production of the first movie … Talk about second or third movies is premature.

- Trailer, website and official photos

-She tells me that it’s likely that the promotion of the film start the second half of this year, because they are preparing several things … But she says that the worry is that the first film is well.

-Teaser trailer-in “The Happening”

-On whether the teaser trailer could emerge in the movie “The Happening” (13/June/2008), she commented that targets are different, and the classification of this film will Shylaman does not help that you can build there, so would be another movie for release … But perhaps for those dates can be and have some teaser.

Thanks to Chelo248 for the translation!

Basically the April 8th date is official. She says it’s way too soon to think about a sequel when they’re still working on the first movie. There likely wont be a trailer with Fox’s The Happening as the genres and audience are different. Promotion won’t start until mid this year (10 months before the movie).
