With all the buzz on the internet, I wouldn't be surprised if it opens bigger than that.

Sunny Mabrey Battles Snakes on a Plane

May 1, 2006
New Line's Cinema's upcoming Snakes on a Plane is causing quite a frenzy both offline and online because of the title and its star, Samuel L. Jackson (who wouldn't want to see Jackson fight snakes... on a plane!?). Another one of the film's stars, Sunny Mabrey, is getting caught up in the craze and briefly chatted with ComingSoon.net about the action-thriller.
"I play a flight attendant with Julianna Margulies and a couple other actors as well," she says. "Pretty much the whole movie is on that plane so it's pretty terrifying and funny and sad... it's a little bit of everything." Mabrey added that working with Margulies was "great, so much fun. We're both big game people so we'd always go to somebody's house or apartment or trailer and play games."
Mabrey also revealed a bit more about the snakes used in the film. "We used a ton of real snakes, everything you can imagine from garden snakes to 20-foot Burmese pythons. We also used CGI of course and rubber snakes, very realistic-looking rubber snakes."
In the movie, Jackson plays an FBI agent who is escorting a witness on a flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles when an assassin releases hundreds of deadly snakes on a commercial airplane in order to eliminate the witness. The FBI agent, along with a rookie pilot, frightened crew and passengers must then band together in a desperate attempt to survive.
Snakes on a Plane, directed by David Ellis (Cellular, Final Destination 2), opens on August 18th.

Pilot Fights Black Snake Stowaway on Plane
Friday, June 02, 2006
CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Monty Coles was 3,000 feet in the air when he discovered a stowaway peeking out at him from the plane's instrument panel — a 4 1/2-foot black snake.
Coles had left Charleston earlier for a leisurely flight over the West Virginia countryside last Saturday in his Piper Cherokee and was preparing to land in Gallipolis, Ohio, when the snake revealed itself.
"Nothing in any of the manuals ever described anything like this," the 62-year-old Cross Lanes resident said. But the advice given 25 years earlier from his flight instructor immediately came to mind: "No matter what happens, fly the plane."
An attempt to swat the snake only resulted in it falling to Coles' feet under the rudder pedals. It then darted to the other side of the cockpit.
While maintaining control of the single-engine plane with one hand, Coles grabbed the reptile behind its head with his other.
"There was no way I was letting that thing go. It coiled all around my arm, and its tail grabbed hold of a lever on the floor and started pulling," Coles said.
