Skeet Ulrich rises from the ashes of Hollywood cancellation, with a big-screen debut for the postapocalytic epic Jericho. Executive producer Jon Turtletaub confirmed the movie is indeed still happening: "We're developing a feature for Jericho," Turteltaub explained. "It would not require you to have seen the TV show, but it gets into life after an event like this on a national scale. It would be the bigger, full-on American version of what’s going on, beyond the town in Jericho." Jericho told the story of a Kansas town that survived a single act of nuclear terrorism that took out two dozen or so U.S. cities on the same day. [IF Magazine]
