Film
With Valiant Comics returning to prominence this year--their new "X-O Manowar" series premieres in May and "Harbinger" premieres in June--it was only a matter of time before the popular characters from the comics line created by publisher Jim Shooter in 1992 would start seeing some possible movement on the movie front.
Sony Pictures and Neal Moritz's Original Film (Fast and the Furious franchise) have teamed to acquire the rights to make a movie based on the Valiant Comics series, Bloodshot, a deal that came out of the purchase of a spec script by Jeff Wadlow (writer/director of Cry_Wolf). Dinesh Shamdasani and Jason Kothari will produce on behalf of Valiant. Matthew Vaughn was previously linked as director.
