“Uncharted” and “Venom” helmer Ruben Fleischer has been set to direct the film adaptation of “The Boys” and “Preacher” author Garth Ennis’ 2021 graphic novel “Marjorie Finnegan, Temporal Criminal” at AAWA Studios.
The eight-issue comic is an action-packed time travel epic following the eponymous female thief who races up and down the time-lanes, stealing every sparkly thing she can lay her hands on.
But her larcenous trail from the Big Bang to the Ninety-fifth Reich has drawn the beady eye of the Temporal PD, whose number one Deputy Marshall is hard on her tail – and taking things extremely personally.
Meanwhile, her worthless ex and his scummier partner intend to use her time-tech to change history for their own benefit. Her only ally? a disembodied head named Tim.
Catya McMullen will adapt the script while Fleischer, Elias Gertler and Zach Studin produce.
