New dinosaur projects on television
In the article about "'Beasts' bests 'Croc' in battle for audience" at:
http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20011227/en/television-beasts_1.html
there is some news of future projects:
"Dinosaurs" allowed Haines to strike out on
his own as a freelance executive producer after
14 years with the BBC. While "Beasts" was in
production, he set up the Bob Hoskins starrer
"Lost Worlds" for the BBC, which he describes
as "Edwardians running away from an allosaurus
in 1908."
He also recently started his own London-based
shingle, Impossible Pictures, with producer/
partner Jasper James. The pair have an
$8 million slate of dinosaur projects, kicking
off with "Hunt for Giant Claw" -- a rare
therizinosaurus -- with the BBC and Discovery.
Richard Travsky was kind enough to supply us with news of "Lost Worlds" in
February:
