Spider-Woman Series Update (Posted 9/28/2008)

Spider-Woman: Agent of Sword by Bendis and Alex Maleev will debut March 2008. It will be the first ongoing by the team since they left Daredevil. “We’re hoping, god-willing, you guys-willing, we’ll stay on that book for a long time on this one as well,” Bendis said. Jessica Drew? Bendis: If she’s still alive, and “if the Skrulls didn’t eat her for Skrull Rosh Hashanah,” she might be in Spider-Woman: Agent of SWORD. He added that readers will find out in Secret Invasion #8 whether Jess survives the Secret Invasion story-line.

‘Y’ Movie for 2010 (Posted 9/16/2008)

The script for the movie based on Brian K. Vaughn’s Y the Last Man has been completed with an eye toward a late 2010 release, according to an interview with director D.J. Caruso by SciFiWire.

Shia LaBeouf is Caruso’s first choice to pay lead character Yorick, and he’d be available after completing Transformers 2, on which shooting is over half done, according to Caruso.

The film will be the first of an anticipated trilogy.

Writer & Director Named (Posted )

New Line Cinema has announced that D.J. Caruso will direct and Carl Ellsworth will write the big screen live action adaptation of Brian K. Vaughan’s epic science fiction comic book series, Y: The Last Man. Caruso and Ellsworth recently teamed up on the sleeper hit Disturbia, which starred Shia LeBeouf in a clever reworking of the storyline of Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window, with wheelchair bound photographer Jimmy Stewart replaced in Disturbia by a grounded teenager played by LeBeouf (who is rumored to be a prime candidate to portray Yorick in Y: The Last Man).
