Wahlberg And Neeson Consider "Neuromancer"

Mark Wahlberg and Liam Neeson have offers to star in Vincenzo Natali's long-gestating adaptation of author William Gibson's cyberpunk classic novel “Neuromancer” says Moviehole.



The story follows Case (Wahlberg), the hacker and thief--a drug addict who, as punishment for some ill-advised thievery, has had his nervous system sabotaged by a mycotoxin that prevents him from "jacking in" to cyberspace.

Neeson is up for the role of Armitage, the shady ex-military type who offers to cure Case, provided he participates in a none-more-secret mission against the powerful Tessier-Ashpool family and the sinister artificial intelligence Wintermute.
