Thanks to Heather by Michael Fleming NEW YORK (Variety) - Universal Pictures and Strike Entertainment will turn the comic book "Beautiful Killer" into an action vehicle for Jessica Alba. The actress is currently following her run as TV's "Dark Angel ( news - Y! TV)" by starring in the Universal-based drama "Honey." The picture is based on the single "Beautiful Killer" issue published so far by Black Bull comics. The story focuses on a young girl driven to avenge the deaths of her parents, who are killed because of their involvement in the espionage game. The comic's title will be dropped and the concept shaped to be reminiscent of "La Femme Nikita," giving Alba ample opportunity to use the physical skills honed in her TV work. "This is very cool, dark material that at its core is about a girl who loses her family to mysterious killers, flees and ultimately chooses to exact revenge," Alba said. "The chance to shape a character and story from inception is a luxury for an actress." |
