Gift Of The Mage

Producer Lloyd Levin has landed the film rights to part of Matt Wagner's classic 1980's comic book Mage reports Variety.

Levin acquired the rights to the fifteen-book collection that makes up " The Hero Discovered" story arc.

A reinterpretation of the Excalibur legend, the story follows an alienated young man who learns he has superhuman abilities. With the help of a magic baseball bat, he must stop the evil Umbra Sprite.

The project was previously in development with Zack Snyder attached to direct.

Levin and Andrew Cosby will produce Mage and a writer is close to being hired to pen the adapted script...

This was one of my favorite tales as a teenager!
