20th Century Fox is developing a reboot of the comic book series The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Created by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen stars a group of Victiorian literature characters including Allan Quatermain (“King Solomon’s Mines”), Captain Nemo (“Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea”), the Invisible Man, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Mina Harker of Dracula. The team is put together by the British government to foil a plot at the center of a war between villains Fu Manchu and Professor Moriarty.
It is one of my favorite movie of all time, It was brilliantly made and cast was well picked. I still love one of the line from Dorian Grey in the movie “What Are You!.. I am Complicated” Ahhh brilliant.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was previously adapted into a film in 2003 starring Sean Connery (his last film role).
I desperately hope they’ll take a different approach with this.
