[edit] Canceled projects

In 2006, it was announced that Fox Atomic was going to make their launching movie a remake of the 1980s film Revenge of the Nerds. After about two and a half weeks of footage, an executive at Fox Atomic viewed the dailies and made the decision to stop production of the film. Only about thirty minutes of the film exists and as of the summer of 2010, the footage has not been released or leaked to the general public. Rumors of the remake being picked up and resumed filming were spread on the internet, but nothing has been confirmed.

San Diego Comic Con was holding auditions and interviews to be cameos and high schoolers in the movie. A teaser poster was released in 2006 and still is out on the internet as of 2010.
