After months of negotiations, the studio has closed a deal to capture the movie rights to the character, who first appeared in 1927.
Mark Frost has been tapped to pen the screenplay.
Notice the difference between HR's headline and my title. Shift in emphasis. But ... uh-oh ... Frost also wrote, or had a hand in, the
Fantastic Four movies? So, it's Disney and Frost became a hack? Odds of this having any kind of interesting edge seem to be dwindling.
