Matthew Vaughn to Direct Bloodshot

Bloodshot

Kick-Ass director Matthew Vaughn is looking at another comic book with Bloodshot, based on a now-defunct Valiant comic series. Vaughn is said to be deep into development of Bloodshot, based on the mid 90s comic from Valiant, about a slain contract killer for the mafia turned government assassin. There are two volumes of the comic with slightly different stories. The movie will skip Volume One and go straight to the story of Volume Two. The Volume Two story was part of the re-boot under Acclaim. Here’s an excerpt from the story:
This all ties in to today’s TACO EXCLUSIVO- despite what you read about Loco Millar, Matthew Vaughn’s next film is going to be a comic book yet again- but this time it is a comic book adaption of the defunct Valiant comic book BLOODSHOT. There are two volumes of the comic with slightly different stories. The movie will focus on Volume 2. Bloodshot is about a reanimated government assassin killing machine named Angelo. Vaughn is writing along with Jane Goldman who wrote Stardust and Kick-Ass for him. Vaughn is fully financing and intends to cast the film late summer. William Morris/Endeavor did the deal. And Millar has nothing to do with it. As El Taco entiende, Vaughan doesn’t like Millar’s pathological lies either. So even though Kick-Ass is tracking extremely poorly among the regular movie going audience which doesn’t want to see a little girl killing random dudes, Vaughan quiere los libros de cómics and he is off on another comic book spree.
