Ryan Coogler Producing ‘A Vicious Circle’ Movie Adaptation
Creator Mattson Tomlin’s (Terminator Zero) comic book series A Vicious Circle is getting a movie adaptation, with THR reporting that Ryan Coogler (Black Panther) will produce.
The project is set up at Universal Pictures, with Tomlin on board to write the script. The Hollywood Reporter describes the project as being “John Wick meets Looper.”
In the comic series from BOOM! Studios, “Shawn Thacker is a trained assassin from the future who seeks revenge on the only other man with his affliction—each life they take forces them both to involuntarily travel between vastly different past and future eras. Spanning from 22nd century Tokyo to 1950s New Orleans to the Cretaceous Era and beyond, the two mortal rivals are locked in a battle of wills that spans millions of years, all to alter the course of history.”
Mattson Tomlin created the comic series alongside artist Lee Bermejo.
Ryan Coogler is producing the movie adaptation through Proximity Media.
The second half of the year is loaded with hotly anticipated horrors including Alien: Romulus, director Fede Alvarez’s (Evil Dead, Don’t Breathe) sequel to the original horror classic that takes place between the events of Alien and Aliens. The film is set on the Renaissance research station, and Total Film has shared three brand new images of the human crew this week.
Meet the crew by checking out Total Film’s exclusive images below.
Alien: Romulus will be unleashed in theaters on August 16.
In Romulus, “While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe.”
Cailee Spaeny (The Craft: Legacy, Pacific Rim Uprising) leads the cast alongside Isabela Merced, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Spike Fearn and Aileen Wu.
Fede Alvarez co-wrote the script with Rodo Sayagues (Evil Dead). Ridley Scott is on board as producer for the film, the first movie in the franchise to be released by Disney.
Alien: Romulus is based on characters created by Dan O’Bannon and Ronald Shusett.
