At this year's New York Comic-Con, the first-ever fan-owned entertainment company Legion M held a panel to discuss the power of fandom, and all the ways that audiences can own their very own piece of each of the company's projects. During the panel on Sunday, the company made the first official announcement that Thor and X-Men: First Class screenwriter Ashley Edward Miller has boarded their project to adapt the graphic novel The Gray Area into a feature film.
The news broke on Sunday that Legion M production company intends to adapt comics illustrator John Romita Jr. and Glen Brunswick's comics and graphic novel The Gray Area into a film franchise, with Miller officially attached to pen the screenplay. Written by Brunswick, the 2004 comic series is a collaboration between the artist and writer that chronicles the journey of corrupt cop and womanizer Rudy Chance who finds himself in a "gray area" between Heaven and Hell following his death. Given a second chance to redeem himself, Chance finds he now has extraordinary powers to fight evil in the afterlife, but his own dark side threatens to eternally damn his soul. Described as "John Wick meets Constatine meets Goodfellas," we'd like to pitch the idea for Keanu Reeves to play Chance.
