  • Tom Hardy Could Star in Film Adaption of Gritty Crime Comic 100 Bullets

    Tom Hardy is to produce and potentially star in a film adaptation of the award-winning comic book 100 Bullets. The violent crime saga ran for a decade until 2009, and is part of DC Entertainment's Vertigo line.
    Created by Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso, 100 Bullets tells the story of a mysterious man known as Agent Graves, who seeks out people who have had some injustice done to them. Presenting each with a gun and 100 untraceable bullets, he informs them of the identity of those that ruined their lives. It ran for 100 issues, and won the prestigious Eisner and Harvey Awards.
    100 Bullets will mark the first Vertigo project to be announced following the decision in June by Warner Bros to move its more adult-themed DC titles over to subsidiary company New Line Cinema. Neil Gaiman's Sandman is also under development at New Line, and other potential Vertigo adaptations include Preacher, Constantine and Lucifer.
    Hardy will produce alongside partner Dean Baker. In May he alluded to the then-unnamed project, when he told Collider that he was working with DC on a new comic book adaptation. “It’s really good actually, it contains elements of all kinds of stuff,” he said. ”From Ocean’s Eleven, to Batman... Technicolor, Pulp Fiction. It’s absolutely awesome.”
