Gunslinger

I’ve been looking forward to this movie for some time. Being a huge fan of Will Eisner and The Spirit, it’s good to see that the movie fell into the hands of Frank Miller who, after Sin City and 300 has shown that, at the very least he knows how to translate comics into movies.

The movie has a great cast of Femmes Fatales lined up, including Scarlett Johannson and Eva Mendes as well as Samuel L. Jackson as The Octopus. The trailer looks like Miller is going for the same look as Sin City, which is appropriate as Miller borrowed the high-contrast noir inking style from Eisner.  Let’s just hope the acting lives up to the cool yet quirky characters from Eisner’s Comic.
