Legendary Pictures nabbed the film rights to Warren Ellis comic book series Gravel reports Variety.The story revolves around the character William Gravel, a soldier in the British Special Air Service . who uses his skills in dark magic to moonlight and battle supernatural beings for clients in order to make some extra cash.
The character first appeared in the 1999 limited series Strange Kiss
Ellis wrote the initial draft of the screenplay and will executive produce the pic.
I am glad Ellis is deeply involved in putting his own creation on the big screen--which usually doesn't happen with Hollywood involved.
