Last year Warner Bros. digital
division Blue Ribbon Content announced that were getting ready to start
developing a Static Shock live-action series. Since then many suns and moons
have passed and things changed a couple of day ago when it was announced that
Milestone Media, the owners of the character, was being revived.
In a recent interview Milestone's
Denys Cowan, and Reginald Hudlin stated that they were skeptical at first of
Warner Bros. plans for Static, however that initial skepticism was thrown out
the window after a meeting they had with Sam Register from Blue Ribbon.
"....So we took the meeting, and Sam
Register was very excited about it, and quite serious, and they made the
announcement. Big picture of Static Shock. They used Static Shock to announce
Blue Ribbon, basically. That's when we knew they were very serious, because
they could have picked anything. They could have picked Flash, they could have
picked Superman, but they didn't do that", said Cowan, while Hudlin added, "Every
meeting we've had with Sam Register and the folks at Blue Ribbon has been
bigger and better. We're so in love with each other -- we're having so much fun
on this property. Denys, of course, had already done tons of brainstorming of
what we thought it could be."
Aside from the initial
announcement no casting or premiere dates have been announced so far, but both
Cowan, and Hudlin say things are progressing well.
