In an interview with Sylvain White when asked about returning on making the adaptation of Miller's Ronin, here's what he told SHH:
"That’s something I had to let go of for a period of time while I was directing The Losers but I’m back here in Los Angeles and as I’m finishing post-production on The Losers, I will be diving back into the development of Ronin."
He gave us his thoughts about the project:
"It’s a very complex graphic novel and it needs very careful attention. Of course to make a movie of that scale, you need a lot of money to pay it justice, especially with the incredible visuals that Frank Miller has in it, but at the same time, in order to get a lot of money to make the movie, it has to have enough commercial appeal, so I’m trying to balance those two things together to make the movie accessible but still smart and throw with all the great ideas and grand ideas that it has."
Not really familiar with the story so here's a wiki on it:
Ronin is a comic book limited series published between 1983 and 1984, by DC Comics. The series was written and drawn by Frank Miller with artwork painted by Lynn Varley. It takes place in a dystopic near-future New York in which a ronin is reincarnated. The six-issue work shows some of the strongest influences of manga on Miller's style, both in the artwork and narrative style.
Seems interesting. I'll watch!
-ACCESS out. Godspeed and MABUHAY!
