Jackman Goes Nowhere In Comics
March 25th, 2008 | by admin |Original Post here: Snikkkt!
Hugh Jackman and Eli Stone co-creator Marc Guggenheim are teaming with Virgin Comics to create Nowhere Man, an original SF comic-book series that is designed to be transferred to the big screen as a Jackman vehicle, Variety reported.
The story was being kept under wraps, but Jackson’s Seed Productions partner John Palermo said it features a protagonist reminiscent of the one Will Smith played in I Am Legend. The concept is a futuristic world where mankind has traded privacy for safety, a premise that sprouted with Seed, Virgin chief executive officer Sharad Devarajan and chief creative officer Gotham Chopra.
Guggenheim has also written installments of Amazing Spider-Man and Wolverine for Marvel Comics. Jackman is in Australia, starring for 20th Century Fox in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the spinoff movie that will hit theaters May 2009.
Nowhere Man will be published under the Virgin Voices line, which also includes Voodoo Child, which Nicolas Cage hatched with son Weston Cage.
