James Franco Will Go On A "Rant"

Litreactor reports that James Franco has won the film rights to author Chuck Palahniuk's book "Rant".


The book itself is set in a dystopian future and follows a small town high school rebel who becomes aroused by exposure to animal toxins. After he moves to the city, he becomes the leader of a covert urban demolition derby team. He also starts a nationwide rabies epidemic that becomes a full zombie-style apocalypse.

It's still very early and not certain how Franco will be involved--either directing, producing or acting, or more likely a combination of at least two of the three.

This would mark the third adaptation of a Palahniuk work following "Fight Club" and "Choke".
