Member HyperDrive Posted November 9, 2010 Member Share Posted November 9, 2010 http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118027027?categoryid=4076&cs=1&nid=2562 Disney gets 'Cowboy Ninja Viking' Company nabs feature rights to popular comic book By Dave McNary Disney's looking for a triple threat, purchasing feature rights to comic book "Cowboy Ninja Viking" with Mark Gordon and Management 360 combining to produce through their joint venture MG/360. The writing team of Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese ("Zombieland") will write the film as well as produce. Management 360's Ben Forkner and Guymon Casady will also produce along with Mark Gordon and The Mark Gordon Co.'s Bryan Zuriff. MG/360 was formed earlier this year by Gordon and Management 360 to develop and produce projects by taking advantage of Gordon's extensive experience as a producer and Management's 360 talent roster. Image Comics has been publishing the Cowboy Ninja Viking series through its Shadowline imprint. The Cowboy Ninja Viking character in the series is the birth child of Doctor Sebastian Ghislain, a psychotherapist who recruits Multiple Personality Disorder patients to create a unit of counter-intelligence agents called the Triplets. Problems arise when the Triplets become out of control assassins -- leading to the deadliest Triplet of them all, Cowboy Ninja Viking, being called in to take down his own brethren. So another comic book adaptation. I wonder which director and stars they will bring in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
