Early Draft of I Am Legend Screenplay

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

I just came across this early draft of the I Am Legend screenplay. It seems to diverge more from the Richard Matheson novel than the final film does. In fact, it starts with no sign of any “zombie” vampires; the first vampire we meet has placed a mannequin in one of Neville’s snares as a trap, and he’s lying in wait with a hunting rifle. At least Neville is a legend for killing their kind.
