An article in The Gaurdian has pointed to the fact that Matthew Vaughn may be involved with making a movie based on the Image Comics mini-series Turf by British talk show host Jonathan Ross and comic book artist, Tommy Lee Edwards:

"There will be five further issues, a hardback collection and – if all goes to plan – a Turf movie made by Matthew Vaughn, the producer of Ross's wife's current hit comic-book film Kick-Ass."

Turf is set in Prohibition-era New York. It tell's the story of a gang war between booze-smuggling mobsters and vampires – the bloodthirsty Dragonmir family from eastern Europe – with an alien thrown in for good measure.

Jonathan Ross is married to Kick-Ass screenwriter and producer Jane Goldman and has claimed in the past to be the one who actually introduced Vaughn to Mark Millar which would later result in the duo teaming up to adapt Millar's comic book onto the big screen.
