Michael Morecei's Image Comics series Roche Limit is being adapted into a film by Heavy Metal. The announcement was made at Comic-Con International: San Diego.

Roche Limit is a murder mystery with horror elements, centered on a missing girl and set in a space colony that has turned into a crime-ridden battleground for various criminal factions.

Jeff Krelitz, David Boxenbaum, and Brian Witten are developing the project, and have hired Leatherface screenwriter Seth Sherwood to write the script.

The film will adapt the first five-issue Roche Limit series. Morecei is currently releasing the second series, Roche Limit: Clandestiny, and plans to conclude his trilogy with a third series.

"It's such a unique book and it needs that particular vision," Moreci told The Hollywood Reporter. "To have people that really get it, I think it makes a difference."
