In an era in which superhero films are surpassing the cliche of a white male lead, Sony aims to shake up the genre once again, delivering the first plus-sized heroine to hit the big screen.
Faith, based on a character who debuted in 1992 through Valiant Comics, is the latest attempt from Hollywood to change how general audiences define a superhero. With the ability to fly, Faith Herbert is a symbol of empowerment in Valiant’s diverse comics slate.
According to Deadline, Sony has hired Maria Melnik, a scribe from the critically acclaimed American Gods series, to pen the project. There's no doubt that fans will be very curious to see how this superhero offering turns out.
If Bloodshot is the success Sony is hoping for, expect this superheroine's advetures to follow close behind.
