In what may be one of the greatest Cinderella stories of all time for a television fan community, Veronica Mars is almost upon us. With the kickstarting help of fans around the world bringing this to fruition, creator Rob Thomas inched this hard-earned reality into even greater focus today.
In an interview with EW, Thomas revealed that the Veronica Marsmovie will see the big screen on March 14, 2014.
“Warner Bros. had this date circled for quite some time and hoped it would stay open,” Thomas said. “Luckily, no other teen detective movie decided to open in the middle of March.”
The news will further delight fans as Thomas revealed that while it was initially aimed to be more of a VOD release with only select cities getting theatrical screenings, the studio has now decided to give it a (likely limited) wider nationwide release.
Veronica Mars tells the story of what happened to Veronica (Kristen Bell) 10 years after the show ended and her entrancing ex, Logan (Jason Dohring), is charged with murdering his girlfriend.
See you in March, super-sleuths!
