Universal Pictures has acquired the rights to the Boom! Studios graphic novel series A vicious circlecreated by Terminator Zero showrunner and Batman: Part II Mattson Tomlin and artist Lee Bermejo. Director of Black Panther Ryan Coogler is producing the project.
A Vicious Circle is described as “John Wick meets Looper” and “a two-hander action thriller about future assassins hunting each other across time.”
In the story, “Shawn Thacker is a trained assassin from the future who seeks revenge on the only other man with the same disease as him: each life they lose forces them both to involuntarily travel between very different past and future eras.
“From 22nd century Tokyo to 1950s New Orleans to the Cretaceous and beyond, the two mortal rivals are locked in a battle of wills spanning millions of years, all to alter the course of history.”
The series’ first issue was nominated for two Eisner Awards, including Best Single Issue/One Shot and Best Painter/Multimedia Artist for Bermejo.
