Fox, Winter renew prod'n deal
By Nicole Sperling

Dec 8, 2006

20th Century Fox has renewed Ralph Winter's production deal into 2008. The first-look deal began in July 2001, after the producer completed the original "X-Men" for the studio.

The native Californian is in production on Fox's sequel to "Fantastic Four" with director Tim Story. The film, "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer," is slated for a June release.

Winter has been a part of Fox's successful run of science-fiction films including all three of the "X-Men" films, which have grossed more than $600 million in domestic boxoffice; 2001's "Planet of the Apes" remake; and last year's "Fantastic Four," which collected about $155 million domestically.

Before Fox, Winter was at the Walt Disney Co., where he produced the remake of "Mighty Joe Young" and "Inspector Gadget." His production credits include the indie film "Hackers," "Hocus Pocus" and "The Puppet Masters." His television producing credits include episodes of "Happy Days," "Laverne & Shirley" and "Mork & Mindy."

Winter is a graduate of UC Berkeley, where he earned a bachelor of arts degree in history.

I forgot to mention that he was on the Fox Movie Channel's 'Life After Film School" segments around October. He talked mostly about X-3 but still an interesting segment to watch.
 
I guess this is a good thing, for awhile he wasn't on as producer as far as credits. It looked like they were trimming the weak limbs, I guess they figured he wasn't one of them. I also see that on IMDB they've put Frost back up as writer. Not sure if thats a positive.

Despite a recent report from the Vancouver Sun stating that principal photography had finished on Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer this weekend, Ralph Winter confirms to us that filming isn't quite done yet.

"We wrap 1st unit this week and second unit next week." says Ralph "Right on target – great footage – everyone is in good spirits." He also wanted to remind people to go see Night at the Museum and check out the teaser trailer.
