Peter And Paul

Resident Evil pals Paul W.S. Anderson and producer Jeremy Bolt will adapt the Peter V Brett fantasy novel "The Warded Man." for the big screen says The Hollywood Reporter.

Set in an undetermined future, mankind is plagued by nightly attacks from demonkind and has been thrown back into a feudal state. Three young people demonstrate the potential power to turn the tide, including the title character, a man who has wards (spells) tattooed on his body.

“It was an occasion where it paid to be British,” Anderson told the trade. “It launched in the U.K. six months earlier than in the U.S., and we got wind of it when it was in galley form before the U.K. release. We think it has the potential to be a new Lord of the Rings-style epic, and the book has all this great imagery.”

LOTR yes. Sounds like a little Harry Potter style stuff is also thrown in for good measure too....
