Vigilante Detective Veronica Mars is finally making it to the big screen……
Thanks to the fans.
If you
are a Veronica Mars fan, get ready to drink the Kool-Aid again because the (not-so-teen
anymore) sleuth is finally bringing her adventures to the silver screen. With
the release of the first official docu-trailer this week, the Veronica Mars
(VM) team, with creator Rob Thomas at the helm, have demonstrated the enormous power
of a committed fanbase. Earlier this year, after years of trying to get the
movie off the ground Rob Thomas and several key cast members (including Kristen
Bell herself), sent out a call on social media for fans to contribute to the ‘kickstarter
project’ which would raise funds for a VM movie production. While Warner Bros
were happy for the movie to be made, they had reportedly indicated that they
weren’t actually willing to pay for its production.

Amazingly,
within 12 hours of launching the kickstarter campaign, the VM movie reached a
massive $2 million in pledges. By the end of the funding campaign they
succeeded in raising over $5 million, and broke a number of kickstarter records
while doing it.
