Variety reports that Producers Adrian Askarieh and Daniel Alter are working with Devil's Due founder and owner Josh Blaylock on developing the upcoming super-hero line, entitled "Aftermath", as a slate of film and TV projects.  Devil's Due maintains an exclusive, multi-year, first-look deal with Askarieh's Prime Universe Productions and is managed by Alter via his Alter Ego Entertainment. The duo are already adapting the comic book publisher's horror/action title, "Hack/Slash", with producer Chuck Gordon (DIE HARD, FIELD OF DREAMS) with whom Askarieh is in pre-production on Universal’s The Rock/John Woo tent-pole, "Spy Hunter".

The first four titles to roll out this Fall under the "Aftermath" universe will be "Blade of Kumori" about a young woman carrying on her family's samurai ways, "Defex" about college students who find something incredible hidden in human
DNA, "Breakdown" which deals with the world’s first super hero, and "Infantry" about the lone survivor of a doomed experiment in  human performance enhancement.

      Thanks to 'AD'
