christensen “force pulled” out of neuromancer?

Just noticed the fact that Hayden Christensen is no longer listed as Case under the Neuromancer page on IMDB. Did Seven Arts Pics or Peter Hoffman finally realize that you need an iconic piece of battered and bruised junkie to do all the work? Page was last updated on the 10th of July.

    His name was romoved last month in a previous update to the database. His name is, however, still mentioned on the Seven Arts page for the movie in the synopsis but there is no longer any cast listed.

The television skies of Chiba City branded his brains in 1992. He hasn't recovered fully since. Re-wired his brain with a few years of FastTracker, hosted radio shows on the first .hu netradio for 4 years, went on to broadcast radio for another two. Worked on the absurd radio series Kónuszék, that actually led him to become a script writer for the multiple-award winning animation Nyócker.

Started LD50 in 2001, an alternative community portal for some, a media experiment for him. DJ'd and organized for 6 years @ Budapest: the first weekly gothic/industrial clubnights, the VK/jrock Nippon Shoxx and the biggest local industrial/cyber party series called Kollektíva, among many. Key figure behind the cyberpunk PDF magazine THE DOSE and he's making a comeback with it.

He's currently an IT/science journalist, with a love for weird stuff, Asian cuisine, pop culture, energy drinks, coffee and chili, eyecandy, Japan and a life-long devotion to all things cyberpunk & slipstream.
