We've seen plenty of superhero movies, but what about one actually centering around a bad guy? Well that's finally coming to fruition as Universal has scooped up the rights to an upcoming Viper Comics graphic novel titled "Villains". The graphic novel, by Adam Cogan and Ryan Cody, puts super bad guys center stage. The plot, told from the baddies' perspective, follows a young man who is failing at life and finds purpose when he meets a Svengali-style villain who takes him under his wing. Universal paid mid six figures for the movie rights and have tapped Matt Jennison and Brent Strickland (their currently working on "Wonder Woman for Warner Bros.") to pen the adaptation. Sean Bailey is producing via his Idealogy banner.
The graphic novel hasn't even been released yet, so I really can't give any thoughts other then I hope its good!!
