This could be good news. Warners connected to the film ‘Bone’:
Warner Bros. has picked up rights to “Bone,” the acclaimed independent comic book series from artist Jeff Smith. Dan Lin will produce.
Of course, the last time Bone looked like it might get turned into a film, things didn’t work out:
An animated version was in development at Nickelodeon Films but fell through, partly because Smith was displeased that the studio was aiming it for kids and wanted the film to include pop songs.
Why do you buy the rights to something like Bone if you don’t want to produce something like Bone?
