As we all know, not hearing a peep about ROBOTECH projects is nothing new to the fandom. The Robotech Live Action Movie is no different. This time there is actually something to talk about. According to an exclusive at Mania.com "Tom Rob Smith has taken over writing duties on the project."

Kasdan Script Out, Smallville In?
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Alfred Gough and Miles Millar (The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor and TV's Smallville) have signed on to write the script for the upcoming Robotech Live Action Movie.
What we would like to know is what happened to Lawrence Kasdan's (Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Empire Strikes Back) draft? Did he just write the first draft? Were Gough and Millar brought on to spice things up on a more contemporary level? Will veritech fighters wear capes now? Join us as we speculate.
"We're just working on the script right now"
