Marvel Studios to Adapt Runaways

May 22, 2008

Marvel Studios will bring "Runaways" to the big screen.

Brian K. Vaughan, who co-created the series with artist Adrian Alphona, is writing the adaptation, for which Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige will act as producer.

"Runaways" follows a group of teenagers who find that some family secrets are bigger than others when they discover their parents are actually super-villains. Running away from their homes, the teens band together and begin a journey of discovery, both of their parents' origins and of their own inherited powers, while trying to make up for the evil done by their folks.

Cool! A movie from a villain's children's perspectives. Interesting! Like I said last time, all Hollywood actors (even the younger ones) would now be a comic book superhero.

Above and beyond one of the best new comic book series in the past 20 years. Runaways would seem better suited as a serial on television but it should do well as a film with Vaughan writing.

It sounds new and an original spin on how we already percieve heros and villians. With a story like this most people would suspect the kid's parents to be superheros but they're super-villains. I've never heard of this comic before but now I have to look it up. Sounds very interesting indeed.
