ShockTillYouDrop.com reports that Warner Bros. Pictures has scheduled a September 19th release date for the Dominic Sena-directed Whiteout, starring Kate Beckinsale, Gabriel Macht, Tom Skerritt, Columbus Short and Alex O'Loughlin. This is how the studio describes the film, based on Greg Rucka's graphic novel:

After two years stationed at Antarctica's South Pole research base, lone U.S. Marshal Carrie Stetko (Kate Beckinsale) is as anxious as anyone to be going home. She's turned in her resignation and is counting the hours and minutes to the last plane out. But three days before departure, a body turns up on the ice and Carrie is immediately thrust into Antarctica's first murder investigation. As the death toll mounts, the mystery deepens with shifting loyalties, deadly whiteouts, and a relentless killer who will stop at nothing to protect a secret buried for over sixty years. Now with everyone around her packing up and getting out, Carrie must solve the crime before Antarctica is plunged into six months of darkness and she is stranded with the killer on a land where nothing comes in and no one gets out.

At this time, there are eight other movies scheduled for that date, which you can view here.

the GN was really really good (as was the sequel whiteout: melt) -- it's more of a murder mystery than a "30 days of night" thing. The Stetko character is a great, strong female hero, and was not as glamourous as Beckinsdale in the GN -- however I think Kate B. will do a good job. Antartica itself is a major "character" in the story, and the artwork's use of negative space really highlights that. Looking forward to the movie!

What's wrong with 2009?

There will only be 2 comic book based movies next year, and about fifty this year.

Sounds interesting. Sort of a "Storm of the Century" thing but without the supernatural element. Could go either way, but I'll be looking for the preview.

I'll be up for this. Loved the teaser poster that was based on the Frank Miller piece that was released a while back.
I have a MASSIVE CRUSH on Kate Beckinsale. Loved her in the Underworld flicks and also with Adam Sandler in Click. I remember that Reese Witherspoon was originally up for the role, but I like that Beckinsale is on it. This was an impressive comic and hope that the flick is cool.

This doesn't really sound like a superhero type movie, but it sounds cool.

Whatever's got Beckinsale in it, I'm watching!
She's sooooooooo hot! *drool*
