Relativity Media has been distributing film via Universal Pictures and Lionsgate Films, but has opted to take 2011 into their own hands. It's not looking good. While Universal took the publicity blow for the garbage known as Skyline, Relativity won't be able to hide behind anyone when they release Season of the Witch and Limitless. Hopefully Shark Night 3D is awesome, but I'd bet against anything David Ellis does.

Dates Subject to Change
SEASON OF THE WITCH (January 7, Relativity)
SEASON OF THE WITCH stars Nicolas Cage as medieval knight Behmen who undertakes a mission pitting him against an devious witch and making him the last hope for the world against an ancient and dark force. His faith broken by years of battle as a crusader, Behmen returns to central Europe to find his homeland decimated by the Black Plague. While searching for food and supplies at the Palace at Marburg, Behmen and his trusted companion, Felson (Ron Perlman) are apprehended and ordered by the dying Cardinal to deliver a young peasant girl believed to be the witch responsible for the Plague to a remote abbey where her powers can be destroyed. Behmen agrees to the assignment but only if the peasant girl is granted a fair trial. As he and five others set off on this dangerous journey, they realize with mounting dread that the cunning girl is no ordinary human, and that their mission will pit them against an evil that even in these dark times they never could have imagined.
LIMITLESS (March 18, Relativity)
The story follows a down-and-out writer (Cooper) who gets his hands on a top-secret pharmaceutical drug that makes one smarter. He experiences sudden financial and social success but soon discovers that the drug has lethal and lasting side effects, including "trip-switching," a phenomenon in which time moves with a stop-motion quality. Before long, mysterious antagonists are pursuing him. The thriller is said to be in the vein of Fight Club and The Game.
SHARK NIGHT 3D (September 2, Relativity)
Shark Night revolves around a group of college friends who spend the weekend at a lake, only to discover that danger lurks beneath its waters. The hope is that it will be Jaws for the 3D generation.
