More than one year after picking up the rights to Boom! Studios' comic book Day Men, Universal Pictures has hired screenwriter Will Simmons to write the adapted screenplay.

Created by Matt Gagnon and Brian Alan Nelson, with illustrations by Brian Stelfreeze, Day Men centers on a group of humans who look after vampires while they sleep during the day, and handle all of their affairs. The vampires in this world are split into mafia-like families, who all vie for control of certain territories. The plot follows one Day Man who becomes a key player when a war breaks out between two families.

Boom! Studios founder/CEO Ross Richie is producing alongside Stephen Christy, the company's president of development. The project will be Universal's second Boom! Studios adaptation, following last year's action-thriller 2 Guns.

Will Simmons wrote Murder City, which landed on The Black List in 2012. That project is currently in development,...

New York's Fashion Week is in full swing, and among the luminaries is one of our favorite people in the Glitterverse, Adam Lambert. He's been roaming around the last couple of days, taking in shows and leaving whiffs of fabulousness in his wake.

When it comes to comic books I love all kinds, especially science fiction books. I recently sat down and read Insurrection V3.6 #1 from Boom Studios.

Insurrection V3.6 takes place in the year 3000 and sets the backdrop that our planet has become a utopian society where crime and war is a thing of the past and peace and philosophy reign. Corporations have risen up and have taken their mining operations to other planets to ship the materials back to our planet. But on one world what would be regular mining becomes difficult because of constant conflict. One company called Glomrat uses A.I. units as security for day to day operations and to defend facilities [...]...

Writer-director Laurent Boulanger and the producer Joel Mielle of Six Lovers have put out a casting call for their new film, The Jerk Off – “A comedy with balls.”

Synopsis:

Alan Nelson has the perfect ego-boosting job, the perfect dope-smoking wife and the perfect rebellious, gothic teenage daughter. But after getting caught downloading porn on his work computer, he loses his job and finds himself in turmoil with his family. His wife wants to leave him, his daughter thinks he is a joke, and he no longer gets the respect he is used to. With only one chance to save his marriage and to get his teenager daughter back into the fold, Alan faces the biggest challenge of his life – change or remain a jerk off forever.

Auditions are taking place in mid-June, but Joel is keen to see if the script can attract some bankable lead stars.

In a statement Mielle said,...

Sequels generally frighten me. Most of the time it’s because they always lack something the first one had. Some sort of magic or chemistry, or maybe it was a naked cheerleader. The second is usually unwarranted, and like running into a bum after a baseball game, you generally hate dealing with it. And then there’s the few that breakthrough and not only enhance the first film, but also fill in the gaps left wide open. The story continues and there’s no bitchin and complaining about it. You’re just happy to see more.
