Earlier this week there were reports that The Ghost would be put on hold due to Roman Polanski's arrest in Switzerland. Polanski's agent, Jeff Berg said that much of the editing had been finished, but other postproduction work like music scoring and sound mixing had not yet been completed.
But it now looks like the film will be completed for 2010 with or without Polanski. Two French sites have posted news from a conference for exhibitors in Deauville, France.
Here's a rough English translation from Premiere (via FirstShowing):
Jerome Seydoux, co-chairman of Pathe and Gaumont cinemas confirmed at the exhibitor’s conference in Deauville that The Ghost will reach French screens in March 2010 . If the director is still detained until that time it seems like other members of his team will take care of sound and music for his film.
Another translation from Tout Le Cine:
Scheduled to be on screens in 2010, The Ghost will be released as planned, imprisoned director or not. This is the first site to make the announcement after receiving the information from the lips of the President of Pathe, Jerome Seydoux. Arriving in Deauville to attend the annual conference of exhibitors, the brother of Nicolas said that the timetable would not move, whatever the circumstances.
