Hex-tra Effort

Horton Hears a Who! co-helmer Jimmy Hayward will make his live-action debut on the comic adaptation "Jonah Hex" says The Hollywood Reporter.



The character of Hex, known for having the right side of his face disfigured and wearing a Confederate army uniform, was a rough-and-tumble gunslinger and part-time bounty hunter whose adventures always ended in blood.

Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor ( Crank ) were previously due to call the shots but bowed out over creative differences in November.

Hayward doesn't seem the obvious choice here--This should prove interesting to see what develops...

Josh Brolin had been circling to star in the film.

Production is slated to begin in March or April.
