Fresh off directing the soon-to-be-released "Sherlock Holmes," Guy Ritchie ("Snatch") is reported to be taking the helm of a movie based DC Comics' alien anti-hero LOBO.Lobo is a virtually invulnerable bounty hunter who has had very few qualms about taking out his opponents (some who deserved it) in his comics appearances. How violent will they let this film get when big audiences representing various age groups are desired by the studios?
Maybe Ritchie will get to call the shots on the type of film he wants to make?
... Yeah, right.
Anyway, I expect one thing out of Ritchie -- he'll make this project a visual fun house complete with all the aliens, space travel and creative action sequences one should expect in a Lobo movie.
In totally unrelated comics 'n movies speculation: Jon Favreau is reported to be kicking the tires of "Cowboys & Aliens." I guess the comics to movies train aint stopping no time soon.
