MARVEL MOVIE ROUNDUP

The Sub-Mariner movie, with newly attached producer/director Chris Columbus, is targeted for a 2007 release, Marvel's Peter Cuneo said during a presentation on Tuesday at the 32nd Annual Media Week Conference in New York.

"We have so many characters still to be developed, still to be launched," Cuneo said.

According to Cuneo, Marvel's current pipeline of movies includes X3, Iron Man, Ghost Rider, Luke Cage, Punisher 2 and Deathlok in 2006, Spider-Man 3, Sub-Mariner, Hulk 2 and Wolverine in 2007.

"If that holds, we¹ll literally have the problem that the year will be too big for us," Cuneo said.

Cuneo said that Marvel's contracts give studios the characters' rights for unending sequels -- with one catch. "They must make sequels within a certain time frame or they will lose the franchise," he said.

In another Media Week presentation on Tuesday, Jon Feltheimer Lion's Gate CEO, said that The Punisher was "a very profitable picture" for the company and that the film's critical family division will include two Avengers straight-to-DVD movies. "There's a whole lot of business there that's not in The Incredibles or Shark Tales," he said
