Fincher is apparently developing a computer-animated flick based on Eric Powell’s great horror comic THE GOON, which revolves around a zombie-punching mob enforcer and his mouthy sidekick, and their misadventures in a bizarre creature-filled town.
The CG will be handled by animation/FX house Blur Studio, who’ve done work for various videogames, commercials and television projects — Fincher recently worked with them (and frequent collaborator Brad Pitt) on a Softbank ad.
The project joins Fincher’s many other plans, including a new HEAVY METAL flick and movies based on the graphic novel BLACK HOLE, the Euro hitman comic THE KILLER, the long-in-the-works sci-fi tale RENDEZVOUS WITH RAMA, and the Eliot Ness murder mystery graphic novel TORSO.
