Mark Millar is reporting on his forum that Fox Studios is moving forward with a big screen movie adaptation of his miniseries “Nemesis“, that was written by Millar and drawn by Steve McNiven!
Millar is reporting that Joe Carnahan (“The Grey“, “The A-Team“)is on board to direct the movie with a script written by himself and his brother, Matthew.
Millar had this to say:
“Shot straight from a wedding in Manchester last week to the City of Angels and plunged straight into some studio biz on the Nemesis movie. Mighty Joe Carnahan is directing (from a script by he and his brother Matthew), but this much you already know. Fox wanted us to get in the same room for the first time and really hash this out, which was exciting. Joe has a really brilliant take on this and Matt and he are going to take things from here so I’m really happy. Absolutely no casting has been done formally although you can google the MTV interview from last January where he and Sir Liam Neeson are chatting about it. More news as it happens.”
I’d still really like to see Carnahan do the “Daredevil” movie we mentioned before, but I’ll settle for a nice adaptation of “Nemesis” in the meantime.
What about you? Were you a fan of the comic series? Don’t forget that “Nemesis 2” is coming in January!
