“Rex Mundi” Gets an Adaptation

Warner Bros. and Infinitum Nihil, Johnny Depp’s production company, looks to adapt the Dark Horse comic Rex Mundi into a film with the help of Ton Legacy screenwriters Lee Sternthal and Brian Klugman.

The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision blog relays that Rex Mundi takes place “in 1933 and centers on a pathologist who investigates the mysterious death of the priest who found him as an orphan, a trail that ultimately leads to a quest for the Holy Grail.”
