Michael Sands one of the writer for the upcoming action extravaganza 'Ninja Assassin' talks about another project he wants to become a film. This is Christian Gossett's Red Star. He has name dropped director Timur Bekmambetov as a another fellow working with him on this sci-fi project. Sands mentioned that he has finished several drafts and hoping that it would become a movie.
He also said that budget is always a factor when writing a sci-fi project because you don't know whether it would be $50 Million or $200 Million, and sometimes those number interchange in the middle of the project.
Here's an official wiki:
The Red Star is a graphic novel by Christian Gossett set in a sci-fi/fantasy world described by Gossett as "Mythic [Soviet] Russia". The "Lands of The Red Star" were inspired by both Russian folklore and military history. The series is thus heavily reminiscent of a post-World War II Soviet Russia mixing technology and sorcery.
I've actually seen the comics before and one thing I could tell you is that it looks elegant.
