Rumor Has It . . .

As mentioned in class, there is a rumor of a movie adaptation of Y: The Last Man in the works. According to the E. Favata's Comic Book Movies site, New Line Cinemas is going to be the distributor.

News and Rumors (from site):
April 28, 2004: Comic creator Brian Vaughn indicated he would like to see Topher Grace for the main role for the film adaptation of his just optioned property.

Comments:
I'm not sure Topher is the right choice but he is closer in age to Yorick than Jason.

At 35 Jason is a bit too old for the role. Very cute and a good actor though so he might be able to pull it off. I would have to try and forget that he played "Beaver" in Dreamcather and that might be a bit of a challenge.
 
I find Topher Grace a little too smirky. Whoever does this has to demonstrate some gravitas beneath the wise-cracking.
