Burn Gets Hot

Writer Matt Johnson will adapt Red 5 Comics popular sci-fi series "Afterburn" according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The story visits a post apocalyptic Earth where Eastern Hemisphere was destroyed by a massive solar flare, leaving what life remains mutated from radiation . And follows a group of treasure hunters who go for such objects as the Mona Lisa, the Rosetta Stone and the Crown Jewels while facing rival hunters, mutants and pirates.



Neal Moritz' Original Films and Tobey Maguire's Maguire Entertainment will produce.

If done correctly this could one kick ass flick. I have already started casting this in my head based just on that cover photo...Burn Notice star Jeffrey Donovan...and Mary-Louise Parker.
