There are rumors flying about that White Noise: The Light is set to go direct to DVD however as of the time of this message, this is JUST A RUMOR.

No decision has been made about the project going direct to DVD and bypassing US cinemas and the decision at this point in time can still go either way.

It is possible that with Nathan Fillion currently being somewhat high-profile with promotion of the new Drive TV series set to premiere on Fox on April 15 with a movie length episode (regular time starting from April 16th preceding 24) and the overwhelming success of the movie Waitress that White Noise: The Light will yet see the “light” in cinemas across the US and other places around the globe.

In scouring the web for news on White Noise: The Light, we’ve run across some more European release dates for the movie.

As always, dates may change, but we’ll do our best to keep on top of them.
