Back in December, before the first issue even the
stands, Fox picked up the rights to Mark Millar, and Goran Parlov's Starlight.
Today according to THR, Gary Whitta has been hired to pen the adaptation for
the big screen.
Starlight is described as:
“So much for retirement! Meet Duke McQueen, a man who
has long since settled down and left his days of saving the Universe and operating
as the space hero everyone depended on—at least that’s what he thought. His
wife long passed and his kids off embarking on their own adventures, Duke lives
a quiet, solitary life until he receives an unexpected call from a distant
world, calling him to action one last time."
Whitta previously wrote The Book of Eli, and
Telltale Games' The Walking Dead video game scripts, and is currently working
on the Star Wars spin-off script for director Gareth Edwards.
X-Men: Days of Future Past and The Fantastic Four
screenwriter and producer, Simon Kinberg will produce the film, which currently
doesn't have a release date confirmed.
