Angels & Demons is a 2009 American film adaptation of Dan Brown’s novel by the same name. It is the sequel to The Da Vinci Code, even though the novel Angels & Demons was published first and takes place before the novel The Da Vinci Code. Filming took place in Rome, Italy, and the Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California. Tom Hanks reprises the lead role of Robert Langdon, while director Ron Howard, producer... Read Full Story
So I'm finally done with the latest and by-far, the longest, Dan Brown offering, The Lost Symbol . Having "chanced" upon it, I began reading it about a month ago and though other engagements didn't allow me to read it cover to cover, it was a good read.
This time round, Brown gives us a vivid tour of the capital of the Free World and as I flipped those pages, running through the chapters (over 130 of those), the city sounded so much more livelier than that which I visited as an eleven... Read Full Story
It was destined to happen even before Dan Brown’s behemoth novel The Lost Symbol hit the bookshelves across the globe in September. The vast sums of money generated from the two previous adaptations make it obvious to continue with the adventures of Robert Langdon.
The Da Vinci Code despite it being dull and preposterous, made a shed-load of cash. Its curiosity value and Catholic-baiting controversy ensured box office takings were gigantic. Earlier this year, Angels and Demons did much... Read Full Story

In late 2003 it was pointed out to me that the dust cover of Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code contained a number of curious ‘anomalies’: map co-ordinates in ‘mirror writing’, bolded letters hiding odd messages, and more. The reason for these strange inclusions became clear when Dan Brown announced in an interview that clues about the sequel to The Da Vinci Code were hidden on the cover of the bestselling book.

There is plenty of money to be made with or by or through Robert Langdon, so Tom Hanks and possibly Ron Howard will go at it again with The Lost Symbol . Collectively, The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons made Columbia/Sony about $1.2 billion around the world, and in fact, the foreign markets are where these films are more aggressively targeted, so even if they don't blow up in the US, the studio is fine with that.
Cinema Blend reports this week that the film is close to beginning the... Read Full Story
The mind of Dan Brown may be a cluster of codes, but in person he appears no more mysterious than your average tennis partner. He is that smiling, sandy-haired man with the dimpled chin you know from the jacket flap of "The Da Vinci Code," the sporty looking fellow in blazer and slacks. After six years of letting his work do the talking — a conversation that whispered and screamed across the globe — he is back, at least briefly, to promote his new novel, "The Lost Symbol," and to reflect on...

The lodge room of the Naval Masonic Hall is a colorful and somewhat inscrutable sight for the nonmember, with its blue walls, Egyptian symbols, checkered floor in the center and high ceiling painted with gold stars. Countless secrets supposedly have been shared in this and thousands of similar rooms around the world. Facts of life have been debated, honors bestowed, rituals enacted. You would need to belong to a lodge to learn what really goes on. Or you could simply ask. "The emphasis on... Read Full Story
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The hotly anticipated follow-up to author Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" was released on Tuesday amid positive reaction from critics but the American novelist admitted he was under pressure to sell well. "The Lost Symbol" comes six years after Brown's last book and again follows the adventures of Harvard professor Robert Langdon. It hit U.S. bookstores at midnight with an unusually large print run of 5 million copies and expectations the book can revive the publishing... Read Full Story
The books are under guard, the plot's secret, the author silent, but all that will change when Dan Brown's latest conspiracy potboiler, "The Lost Symbol," is unleashed Tuesday. Extraordinary measures have been taken to keep the sequel to 2003 mega hit "The Da Vinci Code" under wraps, right down to posting guards in book warehouses. But much as in Brown's tangled -- some say nonsensical -- plots about secret societies, the Catholic Church, and symbologist Robert Langdon, not everything is as... Read Full Story
The man who published "The Da Vinci Code" is resigning. Stephen Rubin, a publishing executive since 1984 whose authors have included Dan Brown, John Grisham and Pat Conroy, said Thursday that he was stepping down as executive vice president and publisher-at-large of Random House Inc., effective Oct. 2.
