Back in November of last year it was announced that Constantin Film had picked up the rights to J. Scott Campbell and Andy Hartnell’s comic book series Danger Girl, and now comes word from THR that the project has secured a writer.
According to the site, Danger Girl will be penned by up and coming screenwriter Umair Aleem, who recently sold the action thriller Kate to Netflix. Robert Kulzer of Constantin Film, Jeremy Bolt of Bolt Pictures, and Adrian Askarieh of Prime Universe Films are producing the feature, which is being eyed as the start of a potential franchise spanning movies and television.
First published by Wildstorm in 1998, Danger Girl “follows the adventures of Abbey Chase, an adventurer who was reluctantly recruited into a secret organization. Chase is then paired with operatives Sydney Savage and Natalia Kasstle on a globe-trotting adventure to locate a series of mystical objects and keep them out of the hands of the evil Hammer Syndicate.”
