"I’ll say this, Mark and I are in discussions," the director told
Collider of the current status of
Nemesis in a recent interview while promoting his latest movie,
The Grey.
"I’ll say I’ve never lost interest in Nemesis. He and I both fell victim to a kind of executive breach of trust that took place that it’s not even worth commenting on. That was a classic example of "he said, he said." That’s an ongoing development."
Brad Pitt was initially rumoured as a possible Blake Morrow (the police detective who faces off against Nemesis throughout the four issue series) but it seems that both Carnahan and creator Mark Millar have someone else in mind altogether now.
"You know it’s funny—and I’ll let this cat out of the bag just for you—Mark Millar and I were talking about Nemesis and I had mentioned that I think a particularly fantastic Blake Morrow would be Liam Neeson." What do you guys think? Sound off with your thoughts in the usual place.
