According to "The Hollywood Reporter" another comic book will get its movie adaptation: graphic novel AFTERBURN by Scott Chitwood
and Paul Ens in which the story is set in a future where solar flares have left half the world a ravaged wasteland filled with mutants and pirates. Buried beneath the ash and rubble are priceless artefacts, which wealthy Americans will pay any price for. The main hero is a treasure hunter who leads his team into the quarantine zone, facing rival bounty hunters, rogue armies, pirate gangs and deadly mutants along the way. The last time I've heard about the Relativity Media project, Gerard Butler was attached to star in the lead role, and Tobey Maguire is one of the producers. Speaking of Gerry Berry he will also star in MANHUNT, as a part of a team of FBI agents sent to the North Carolina wilderness to chase the FBI's most wanted man, domestic terrorist and survivalist James Tollan, who has eluded arrest with the support of the local population while attacking the federal government. They enroll the help of a reluctant bear
hunter to capture the killer. But once the team enters the woods, the hunters become the hunted as Tollan will stop at nothing to survive and defend his territory. Who chooses these roles for him?!?
