Megan Fox is supposedly in the final negotiations to star with Josh Brolin and John Malkovich in Jonah Hex, which is a western based on a DC comic series. It was one of my favorites as a kid and I know I have a few tucked away in the attic somewhere. I should fish on out for a contest maybe.
Anyway, Megan is also going to star in Fathom, also based on a comic book. I actually thought I had one of those too. Didn’t Image Comics start that character?
In “Hex,” being directed by Jimmy Hayward, Fox will play Leila, a gun-wielding beauty and love interest of Hex (Brolin), a scarred bounty hunter tracking a voodoo practitioner (Malkovich) who wants to raise an army of undead to liberate the South.
And…
“Fathom,” a comic created by recently deceased artist Michael Turner, follows a young woman named Aspen who learns she is a member of a race of aquatic humanoids who possess the ability to control water.
The project was at one point set up at James Cameron’s Lightstorm Entertainment. When the option lapsed, producer Peter Safran scooped it up and began packaging it, eventually attracting Fox, a fan of the comic since its 1998 debut, when it became the top-selling comic of the year. Fox had been seeking Turner to investigate “Fathom’s” rights availability.
Uhhh, underwater action and Megan Fox. Sounds like it has hit potential with dude crowd just from those things alone.
