According to The hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. is in the process of acquiring the rights to Lore, the IDW graphic novel by Ashley Wood and T.P. The screenplay was written by Cory Goodman (Priest) and Jeremy Lott. Andrew Lazar (Jonah Hex) is set to produce. Perhaps most interesting is the fact that Dwayne Johnson is currently attached to star in the sci-fi action flick which was recently described as "Men in Black with mythological creatures." Below is the synopsis for the graphic novel.

In times past, the world was full of mythical creatures - creatures long since banished and held at bay by the secret society of Shepherds. But when the generational line of Shepherds is broken, a reluctant hero finds her life threatened from every quarter. And the creatures are coming back!
