Guy Ritchie Set to Direct Lobo - Blu-ray Forum

Jellybeans · 10-03-2009, 02:30 PM

Warner Bros. Pictures has set Guy Ritchie to direct Lobo, a live action adaptation of the DC Comics title about an alien interstellar bounty hunter, reports Variety.

Don Payne wrote the most recent script draft, and Joel Silver, Akiva Goldsman and Andrew Rona will produce. The film is a co-production between Silver Pictures and Weed Road.

In the film, says the trade, Lobo will be a seven-foot tall, blue(gray)-skinned, indestructible and heavily muscled anti-hero who drives a pimped out motorcycle, and lands on Earth in search of four fugitives who are bent on wreaking havoc. Lobo teams with a small town teenaged girl to stop the creatures.

Production on Lobo begins early next year. The studio is aiming for a PG-13 rating.

I'm curious how Ritchey will make a movie based on a comic book identical to Lock Stock, Snatch and RocknRolla.

I like his movies, but the kid doesn't have much range.

I bet we see some range with the new Sherlock Holmes!! Victorian London vs. modern day. I think it would also be neat to see what he can do with some Sci-Fi!!

woot! Lobo!

Regarding Sherlock Holmes, I agree. That's one "franchise" that hasn't really received a good treatment in a while.
