Mel Gibson‘s new film How I Spent My Summer Vacation (that caused riots in Mexico) is going to happen regardless of the issues as it finds a major distribution deal.
Icon Entertainment International has arranged a number of distribution deals for How I Spent My Summer.
The film stars Gibson as a criminal sent to a notoriously violent prison and forced to do whatever it takes to survive. The film doesn’t begin shooting until March, but family members of inmates at the shooting location, the Ignacio Allende Prison in Veracruz, are already protesting the removal of their kin at the film’s expense. Considering the movie’s massive pre-sale success at the Berlin Film Festival, I doubt Gibson and his team will let the situation hinder production.
Hopefully people’s lives aren’t too disturbed by the shooting of the film. Sounds like it could be an interesting film, Gibson is certainly getting back into acting in a big way. He can do whatever he wants with his kind of success.
