Intrepid Pictures has acquired film rights to the 2006 superhero satire graphic novel “The Expendable One” says The Hollywood Reporter.
Shane Kuhn and Brendan Cowles (“Twitch,” “Drive-Thru”) will adapt the feature, which centers on a typical suburban guy who accidentally injects himself with a serum that allows his body to heal from any injury.
He tries to help some locals with the aid of a police radio, but when the CIA recruits him to find a serial killer, he finds he is in over his head.
