Bosco685 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Weird, as at one point we had a Fathom thread when rumors first came up about a potential movie in the works. This is great news, as this movie should have been made a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 That took a loooooong time to come together. David Maisel, Scooter Braun Plan Three-Film Animated Slate Quote A year after its launch, Mythos Studios, the fledgling company led by Marvel Studios founding chairman David Maisel and record executive Scooter Braun, on Thursday revealed it is in active development on three animated features. Taking a page out of a playbook Maisel used when he was Marvel's top exec, Mythos hopes to create cinematic universes for animated fare while also event-sizing stories and attracting more sophisticated and global audiences. One of its early steps was taking an ownership stake in Aspen Comics, controlling entertainment rights to its intellectual property, including the works of deceased comics superstar Michael Turner. "We are tremendously fortunate to have found brilliant creative partners whose artistry and storytelling talent will help us bring these very distinct yet universally themed stories to life on the big screen," said Maisel in unveiling the new works. "These three projects reflect our vision for Mythos Studios, which is to immerse viewers in cool, animated universes based on contemporary and classic mythologies that resonate around the world. We are excited to be moving forward with these films." Pete Candeland, best known for his Gorillaz music videos and The Beatles: Rockband, is directing Cupid, a musical starring Justin Bieber as the voice of Cupid. It is based on the mythological tale of Cupid and Psyche. Rio 2 scribe Carlos Kotkin wrote the -script from a story by Maisel. The project is intended to launch what the producers call the MythoVerse, a cinematic universe of stories and characters inspired by classic Greek and Roman mythology. Meanwhile, Mythos is actively working on what it calls the TurnerVerse, based on two comic books created by Turner, Fathom and Soulfire. Kevin Adams and Joe Ksander, the directing duo behind Netflix's Next Gen, are developing both titles as vehicles. Kristin Gore, the daughter of former Vice President Al Gore who counts Futurama and Saturday Night Live as credits, is writing Fathom, Turner's signature creation that centers around Aspen Matthews, a marine biologist who discovers she is a member of an advanced underwater species. I see warning signs in this updated announcement. But I hope not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
