I, ROBOT Scribe to Adapt Y: THE LAST MAN
June 4th, 2004
Sci-fi Wire reports that Screenwriter Jeff Vintar (I, ROBOT) is adaptating Brian K. Vaughan's comic book Y: THE LAST MAN for the big screen. The storyline with focus on the aftermath of a plague that wipes out all but one male, leaving him alone with a race of remaining women, poor guy!, to figure out what happened. Vintar told Sci-Fi that the challenge will be creating a satisfying ending, since the comic series is ongoing.
"Brian probably only has a vague idea of how it's going to end, because he's got three more years writing it," Vintar said. "The world may not be saved. The men are not going to come back. [Like] in a zombie film, you know the zombies are not going to go away, and yet at the end of the film, you want to feel like you've reached a dramatic high. It's not always easy. Not every film does it."
