Zellweger’s CASE 39 Will Finally See The Light Of Day

EW has reported on Paramount Pictures thriller CASE 39.

It has sat on the shelf for close to two years but finally CASE 39, the horror flick from director Christian Alvart (Pandorum), will finally see the light of day. Paramount Pictures has confirmed that the film, which c0- stars Zellweger’s reported beau Bradley Cooper, will bow on October 1, 2010.

In the film, Renee Zellweger plays a social worker attempting to protect young Lillith from her cruel parents, but gets caught in the dark forces surrounding her. Here’s a look at the trailer.

A studio source said the R-rated film had been shelved for so long because of internal management changes. Earlier this year, though, Paramount’s international arm released the film overseas to strong numbers, particularly in Spain and Mexico, where the film grossed $3 million in each territory. These numbers gave the studio confidence that a domestic release was warranted.

From Paramount PIctures, CASE 39 will be in theaters on October 1, 2010.
