Odata cu Cowboys and Aliens, scenaristii si producatorii Alex Kurtzman si Roberto Orci au anuntat ca mai lucreaza la o adaptare dupa o banda desenata.
DreamWorks este in negocieri pentru a cumpara Xombie, despre un zombie care este si politist, bazat pe o banda desenata Devil’s Due scrisa de James Farr. Scenariul este scris de Will Beall, iar Kurtzman si Orci sunt in negocieri pentru a-l produce.
Beall a fost membru al diviziei 77 apoi a devenit detectiv la omucideri; acum continua sa serveasca LAPD in timp ce scrie.
Povestea este despre un politist pe nume Dirge care incearca sa salveze o parte din oameni si o tanara pe nume Zoe, de zombie diabolici.

Hot off the heels of all the Cowboys and Aliens news, writers and producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci have announced yet another comic book adaptation. DreamWorks is in negotiations to buy Xombie, a pitch about a zombie who is also a policeman based on a Devil’s Due comic book written by James Farr. The screenplay was pitched and written by a “cop-turned-scribe” named Will Beall, with Kurtzman and Orci in talks to produce.
Beall is a former beat cop and anti-gang policeman in the 77th Division who recently became a homicide detective; he continues to serve in the LAPD while writing.
Xombie connects back to an original online animated series that James Farr created. You can still check that out at: Xombified.com. The story centers on a zombie cop named Dirge who attempts to saves humanity’s remnants, particularly a young girl named Zoe, from evil zombies. According to THR, DreamWorks is in negotiations to acquire the source material.
