comickal: Bluesman film?
Whoa! Coolness!
ICv2 News - 'Bluesman' Optioned for Feature:Bluesman, a three volume NBM graphic novel series by Rob Vollmar and Pablo Callejo, has been optioned for a feature film by producers Jason Koornick and Lawrence Blume....
I wonder how they'll cast it. Frankly, I wonder how they'll make it; given that the comparatively few racial references in Dreamgirls got either softened or yanked entire, how do you make a film about something featuring music, sex, murder, and a really staggering amount of racism (from the modern perspective, anyway)? To be sure, this will be positioned as an indie of sorts, despite the fact that Revolution is entirely owned by Sony/Columbia. Even so... (Of course, there's an assumption of another order I'm making; just because the producers have worked with Revolution before doesn't mean that they'll do it again.)
