Trudie Styler's Xingu Films has acquired film rights to American Reaper, a new graphic novel coming soon by Pat Mills and Clint Langley under their Repeat Offenders banner. Mills and Langley have been frequent collaborators, having worked together on the graphic novels "Slaine"(photo on the left), "Judge Dredd" and "Martial Law". Styler and Alex Francis will produce for Xingu, with Repeat Offenders' Jeremy Davis executive producing. No cast or director is attached, but the production is set to be budgeted around 50 million. "It's rare for us to sign up to a project based on just a proposal, but the opportunity to work with proven talent like Pat and Clint from such an early stage, on a project with so much potential, was just too good to pass up," Styler said.
Plot Concept: The story is set in a future where identity theft leads to victims having their minds erased and replaced by those of the elderly rich seeking a second youth or by criminals and terrorists with more sinister motives. A team of special agents, known as Reapers, are formed to track down and terminate those responsible.
