Director Todd Lincoln (The Apparition) will reportedly helm the big-screen adaptation of the WildStorm comic book, Danger Girl. Adrian Askarieh (Hitman) is producing the film. Danger Girl was created by J. Scott Campbell and Andy Hartnell, the comic centers on a group of scantily clad female secret agents battling villains across the globe.

Producer, Adrian Askarieh said:

“”I would describe it as Kill Bill meets Raiders of the Lost Ark with the ‘team’ element of Mission: Impossible. I would say to the uninitiated that the book is a smart, hip, fun and beautifully drawn love letter to the best action/adventure movies of the last 30 years. It is the story of a lost girl who, through this incredibly kick-ass adventure, finds her destiny, comes of age and helps save the world… It is truly an iconic property which for a while (before Watchmen and 300 were turned into movies) was the best known non-Marvel/DC comic book out there.”

Askarieh also touched on how they will portray the comic characters in the film.

First of all, we are taking these characters very seriously; a kind of “Batman Begins” approach, if you will. Also, Todd has a very interesting aesthetic approach to this project, which will actually inform the tone of the storytelling and the movie as a whole. Without giving too much away, he wants to use the technology similar to that used in “Avatar” to bring Campbell’s characters and world to life and yet, at the same time, have the audience fully recognize and be emotionally invested in the actors playing those characters.

Askarieh says that he plans to announce the Danger Girl cast at Comic-Con in July.
