Comics2Film
reported last month that comic scribe Brian Azzarello had been tapped to
write a treatment for the big screen version of Bloodshot
for Brigade Entertainment. Brigade's Dave Elliott told C2F that the
treatment is in and reaction to it has been very enthusiastic. The movie
is being prepped as a starring vehicle for the wrestler known as Triple H.
Speaking
of Azzarello, Elliott also tells us that Brigade is moving forward with a
movie version of writer's 100 Bullets comic. That project is
in the very early stages and no details could be made available.
A
big Brigade project that's not comic related is a revamp of the early
1970's Hammer flick Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires. The
original was a quirky blend of Hammer horror and Hong Kong action that
starred Peter Cushing as Van Helsing tracking Dracula in China. Elliott tells us that Tim Allen (Galaxy Quest) is attached to fill
Cushing's shoes, this time playing the part as a Van Helsing wannabe. The
producers are also in talks with a major action star to provide the kung
fu fighting.
Elliott
tells us that work is progressing on his comic related independent feature
Nose Dive. His script for the film is out the a number of
high-profile actors. Elliott promises future updates as the project
develops.
