Matthew Vaughn and Mark Millar Re-Team for "American Jesus"Posted: March 26th, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
|
  Fresh off their collaboration on "Kick-Ass," filmmaker Matthew Vaughn and comics creator Mark Millar are in talks to re-team for another comic book adaptation.
Vaughn is eyeing Millar's "American Jesus" as his next directing vehicle, which would be produced by Vaughn and financed independently in the same manner as "Kick-Ass." The story centers on the return of Christ in the modern world, leading to a final confrontation with the Antichrist in a bid to save humanity.
The book, made with artist Peter Gross, originally appeared as a three-issue miniseries in 2006 with the title "Chosen." When Millar, one of the top writers in the comics field, decided to continue the story as a trilogy of miniseries, the overarching title became "American Jesus." The second installment is subtitled "The Resurrection" and is due out in the fall.
A summer start is being planned.
