Bekmambetov Switches into Lunar Boy

Adapting Stephen Tunney's novelOn the lookout for his next project following Abraham Lincoln subsequently: Vampire Hunter, Timur Bekmambetov has acquired the privileges to 100 % Lunar Boy, this years novel by Stephen Tunney.It is placed two 1000 years later on, when Mankind has abandoned its terraforming project around the Moon, departing it and it is colonists for an uncertain fate. Hieronymous Rexaphin lives there, and it has developed a disorder that enables him to determine the 4th primary colour, which in some way means he is able to also see the way forward for in history and matter. He needs to put on goggles, because considering his eyes kills people, which in turn causes problems as he falls deeply in love with Earth-girl Home windows Falling On Sparrows. Signal a thrilling adventure where the pair must go away from home to prevent incarceration around the Negative Side From The Moon...So that's unusual.Whether it helps, you will probably find some context within the knoweldge that Stephen Tunney also passes the title of Dogbowl. He would be a founder-person in art-rockers King Missile (he's on Take Stuff From Work, but sadly he'd left when from the infamous Removable Penis), and the sole previous novel, 1993's Flan, is one of the epnoymous hero with an journey across a blasted Bosch-like America, supported by his speaking fish Ginger root Kang Kang.Quite what Bekmambetov plans related to 100 % Lunar Boy is unclear. Variety describe it as "a aesthetically inventive world having a effective coming-of-age story in regards to a boy finding his devote the world", that is horribly reductive, but may well be a helpful position for Bekmambetov to take attempting to make the project palatable for any studio. Then we'd have to hope he required a superbly crazy line once shooting began. We are thinking Scott Pilgrim may well be a type of template. However, Scott Pilgrim did not prosper, box office-smart...The guy presently assigned with hammering the novel into script shape is Edward Ricourt, who has not yet got a completed film under his belt, but whose You Now See Me is presently being produced, directed by Louis Leterrier and starring Jesse Eisenberg and Morgan Freeman. He's also written the optioned scripts Year 12 and just how To Defeat Your Personal Clone.That last title, together with the truth that You Now See Me is all about masters of magic who moonlight as bank thieves, indicates he may be only the guy with this job.
