Also starring Keir Dullea (Dave), Douglas Rain (HAL), two Russian actors from _M_o_s_c_o_w_ _o_n_ _t_h_e_ _H_u_d_s_o_n and one Russian actress. Tentative release date by MGM/UA: December 7, 1984 Directed by Peter Hyams. Screenplay by Peter Hyams. From the novel by Arthur C. Clarke. Produced by Peter Hyams. Photographed by Peter Hyams. Quite an auteur, eh? Supposedly Hyams blackmailed the A.S.C. by threatening to take the production out of Culver City and over to England for studio work if they didn't let him be Director of Photography. Kubrick gave his approval for a sequel to Hyams, but never visited the set. Steven Spielberg did, however, and wasn't allowed to see the model of the Discovery ship. Prince Andrew also visited the 2010 set on his recent visit to Los Angeles, but Hyams wouldn't even let him enter the command bridge set. Hyams insisted on recreating the exact costumes as well, using a computer to embroider the command patches to match the exact colors of the originals. Cost him 20 grand to get the patches right.
