The film is based on the graphic novel of the same name, by A.J. Lieberman and Riley Rossmo. The book is currently sold out at Amazon. It could be coincidence, or it could be a sudden bump in interest thanks to Chris Pratt’s involvement with the film adaptation.
As Pratt mentions, the film does not currently have a director attached. Feel free to tweet him your thoughts on who should direct.
