Peyton Takes Over Lobo Movie

Brad Peyton ("Journey 2: The Mysterious Island") will rewrite and direct the long gestating live action film adaptation of the DC Comics title "Lobo" says Deadline.


In the comics, Lobo is an alien interstellar bounty hunter. The seven-foot tall, blue-skinned, indestructible and heavily muscled anti-hero rides 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 them.

Joel Silver, Akiva Goldsman and Andrew Rona will produce the pic.

The project has been in development for several years--It stalled again when  Guy Ritchie left the pic for the "Sherlock Holmes Sequel and the not-so-hot reaction to "Jonah Hex."
