Comic Book Legend Alan Moore to Write for the Screen


So reports the Guardian.

From the piece...

But if you've ever wondered quite what a movie made with Moore's full cooperation might look like, now's your chance. The writer has announced he is teaming up with director Mitch Jenkins to work on a series of "occult, noir flecked" short films titled Show Pieces, the first of which was recently shot in London.

Act of Faith, which stars Siobhan Hewlett (Sherlock, Hotel Babylon, Torchwood) will be followed by Jimmy's End, which is due to be filmed in Northampton later this summer. The project as a whole is described as a "multi-layered, multi-episode narrative" created by Moore and brought to life by Jenkins. Both films will premiere at a New York event in October before screening via the digital arts platform thecreatorsproject.com.
