The action adventure has been bumped from Aug. 4 release to Dec. 8. A spokesman for Disney, which is releasing Apocalypto, said Sunday the production had fallen behind because of heavy rains in the wilds of Mexico, where Gibson is shooting the film.
Like Gibson's religious blockbuster The Passion of the Christ, which was shot in Aramaic and Latin, Apocalypto is being done in an ancient tongue, Yucatec Maya.
Apocalypto follows the journey of a Mayan hero on the run through the rainforests of pre-Columbian Mexico.
Now I love Mel Gibson and I think he's an amazing director but I really can't understand why he insists on doing his movies in all these ancient languages.
I think that will prove to be very annoying for the movie going public.
Since once again they'll be stuck with reading subtitles all throughout the movie.
