'Skyscraper' Trailer: The Rock Plays 'Die Hard' In A Towering Inferno
- 6 years ago
I went to bed early last night (after I finished watching Cloverfield Paradox), so I didn't check my email late enough to notice that Universal had dropped a full trailer for Skyscraper. I guess Dwayne Johnson couldn't let Tom Cruise have all of the fun.
Anyway, as noted yesterday, Skyscraper is presumably (barring some other huge film not on my radar) going to be the most expensive "not based on anything" Hollywood release in 2018. Normally, I'd say "live action," but since most of the big toons this year are sequels (Incredibles 2, Wreck-It Ralph 2) or IP adaptations (The Grinch) there is no need for a caveat. But Universal and Legendary would prefer that Skyscraper not just be the most expensive original movie of the year, but the biggest-grossing as well.............
