‘Lobo’ goes to Hollywood (really!)
Heidi has the goods:
Manly director Guy Ritchie is set to direct the LOBO movie… let’s start the campaign to cast defining artist Simon Bisley in a supporting role NOW! There’s gonna be so much bonus testosterone on this project that Megan Fox is gonna turn into a sprint champion. Warner Bros. has locked Guy Ritchie to direct “Lobo,” the live action adaptation of the DC Comics drama about an alien interstellar bounty hunter. Don Payne wrote the most recent script draft, and Joel Silver, Akiva Goldsman and Andrew Rona will produce.
In the meantime, expect a price bump in back issues of the book to the right.
Frankly, LOBO is a character have not cared for in years. To make it successful I think you'd have to change his personality at least enough for a non-fan to care about him. That would only succeed in ticking off his fans. I could be proven wrong, but I wouldn't count on it. I think the DEADPOOL movie would have a better chance at big box-office and I don't think that is automatic.
