Someone posted this article on a movie forum, but I'm still trying to find out how much truth is in this:

FINAL DESTINATION IV (HITTING THEATERS 2008):
James Wong has kept us waiting all right, but for the fourth installment of the popular horror movie franchise FINAL DESTINATION, fans are ecstatic at hearing that the release date of FINAL DESTINATION is to be on September 10, 2008. Having filmed Final Destination (2000) eight years ago Wong admits that he had no plans at all for any sequels. But the generation of teen slash horror films had already reached its climax for the twenty-first century, and so the plot and gore continues. "Many people complained that Final Destination 3 had nothing new to it," says the director of the first and third films of the series, "so this time we brought in a new factor that will make it very different from the previous films." When asked for any last words, Wong said that Final Destination IV would be bringing in a new item as symbolic as the infamous tanning bed, and that this film will not be in 3-D.
Brief Sypnopsis:
Everything began with Billy, a graduate student at a ski resort with his friends on what's supposed to be the most impacting day of his life. When he escapes disaster unlike any way that had been escaped before, Billy understands the true face of fate, and what must be beaten in order to escape Death and its future consequences.

Here are some problems I find with the article:
1) Entirely too soon to release. Yes, the SAW movies take less than a month to film, etc, but the FD movies take about a year to make. They've got less than a year, which is much less than the others.
2) The character name Billy was already done in the first, so I can't see why they would have another character named Billy
3) David Ellis is signed to direct, not James Wong.
4) Sept. 10 is a wednesday. Why release a movie like this on a wednesday? Movies like this are released on fridays.
5) If the release is correct, why would they release a movie about mass-death and destruction a day before Sept 11?
6) I can't find the story on any other sites like ComingSoon.net and BloodyDisgusting.com.
