Valiant to fund movie and TV projects!

[Deck Rickard]

Merritt Wever would be perfect for Faith, though I think she's slimmed down recently.

 

[terry78]

I feel like they may get someone like Jillian Bell or somebody.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Bell would be okay as long as she doesn't spend the whole movie making an ass out of herself.

I know next to nothing about Valiant Comics but it seems like it's taking like forever to get moving on this.

Now that a production start date has been set-forth, I suppose we'll hear some more in the next week or so. I wonder if this will feel like a Vin Deisel action movie like Riddick or more of an adaptation type of film.

From this link can click on "related pages" and get a complete list of characters, teams, and people in valiant comics as well.

Plenty of fodder for the next few years or so. This movie fails just do videogame type adaptations from Acclaim entertainment. It's too bad they can't attempt to do a Turok adaptation. If done right I think it could be interesting. Think a native american version of Robert Muldoon from original Jurassic Park with entire movie centered around him.

I would say close enough, but really just throw Predator/Rambo/Commando/RoboCop/Terminator in a blender and that's Bloodshot in a nutshell.

Turok is over at Universal. Its a shame it's not them funding the Valiant films, as they have the rights to some important characters that used to be a part of the Valiant Universe (ie Turok, Solar, Magnus).

They could still do Armourines. I remember playing it on the N64 w/Ram expansion a long while back and never realized it was based on a comic book. I don't know if they were any good or not though...

That's quite a blend. If they get the look right, I think people will take note like they seem to do with a lot of his franchise based action movies involving lots of flash and pizzazz. DMG seems to be pushing the comics towards quality emphasis so it will be interesting to see how this movie meshes over.

How have the comics been lately?

How have the comics been lately?

They did a relaunch back in 2012.
So, the main characters/teams are basically:

-Bloodshot
-X-O Manowar
-Eternal Warrior
-Shadowman
-Ninjak
-Archer & Armstrong
-Quantum & Woody
-Harbinger
-Rai

I got addicted to how everything connects fairly quickly. Best universe building publication I'm aware of atm.

 

[Deck Rickard]

I REALLY want a Shadowman movie. There's so much potential for a really dark superhero there.

He's definitely playing the villain.

It’s Vin. In sunglasses. I’m surprised they didn’t give us a shot of him in costume. Unless Vin isn’t going to be all white.

 

[Deck Rickard]

No, he'll be all white. They released that concept art of him at Comic Con.

Podcast with the Bloodshot director Dave Wilson. Interesting that Joe Russo was in one of the first screenings and he talks about some notes he got.

First Bloodshot Trailer Coming By October

“We’ve been in post for a while now,” Wilson said. “We got back from shooting this November, December. We’ve had our first previews and everything’s going great. All the visual effects gears are turning. We’ll probably have a few days of reshoots just to pick up a few things we didn’t get down in Cape Town, which is where we shot, and hopefully, the first trailer is coming out October if not sooner, getting ready for our February release date.”




Wilson also touched on what the reactions to those early screenings have been like. “I’m a big visual filmmaker, so the action is all singing a lot,” Wilson says. “And there’s two distinctive, big sequences in the film — well there more than that, but there’s two standouts for me — but one is so heavy with visual effects that when we preview, and it was very, very early and not a lot was there. And then there’s one that’s very practical and that one is just playing like gangbusters. Even though I come from the visual effects world, there’s a sort of inherent fidelity and quality to practical effects and real set pieces that I wanted to lean into in this film. So there’s one and it's crafted entirely from a practical standpoint, which was inspired by a Russian dashboard cam video that I found online.”

It looks like the "Harbringer" movie is being fast tracked sooner than anticipated as Sony is no longer involved.




‘Harbinger’ Movie Moves From Sony To Paramount – Deadline
Valiant Comic 'Harbinger' Feature Project Moves From Sony To Paramount

Deadline has confirmed that the Valiant Entertainment comic book project Harbinger is headed from Sony to Paramount, which is where producer Neal Moritz has had his first-look deal since last year.

The comic follows a group of teens with superpowers who go up against the corporation that tried to exploit their talents. Moritz, who is producing Sonic the Hedgehog for Paramount, will remain aboard as producer with director Justin Tipping, who co-wrote screenplay with Joshua Beirne-Golden, from an original draft by Eric Heisserer.

Dylan O’Brien and Noah Centineo were circling the project, but now it will have a short development at Paramount before going into production. Valiant Comics’ Dan Mintz also is producing. Valiant’s other comic book feature adaptation Bloodshot, starring Vin Diesel, opens on February 21 from Sony.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Dylan O’Brien would be a good Sting. But please please please for the love of God, keep Centineo away from this thing. He’s already going to ruin He-Man; no need for him to torpedo this film too.

 

[StarLord]

No hair then.

After he and his wife are murdered, Marine Ray Garrison (Vin Diesel) is resurrected by a secret team of scientists. Enhanced with nanotechnology, he becomes a superhuman, biotech killing machine – Bloodshot. As Ray first trains with fellow super-soldiers, he cannot recall anything from his former life. But when his memories flood back and he remembers the man that killed both him and his wife, he breaks out of the facility hellbent on revenge, only to discover that there’s more to the conspiracy than he originally thought
