Film
Among its fans, Shadowman counts Ice Cube who went so far as to approach Acclaim Entertainment (when they controlled the title) about mounting a feature film. Acclaim rebuffed the approach as they were focused on the success of the Shadowman video game franchise. Others linked with the role include Will Smith, DMX and The Game. In October of 2012, Valiant Entertainment announced a film version of the property, produced by Sean Daniel (The Mummy) and written by J. Michael Straczynski, (Thor, Babylon 5)

Famous quotes containing the word film:
“If you want to tell the untold stories, if you want to give voice to the voiceless, you’ve got to find a language. Which goes for film as well as prose, for documentary as well as autobiography. Use the wrong language, and you’re dumb and blind.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1948)
“A good film script should be able to do completely without dialogue.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“Film is more than the twentieth-century art. It’s another part of the twentieth-century mind. It’s the world seen from inside. We’ve come to a certain point in the history of film. If a thing can be filmed, the film is implied in the thing itself. This is where we are. The twentieth century is on film.... You have to ask yourself if there’s anything about us more important than the fact that we’re constantly on film, constantly watching ourselves.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
