The character of Sláine from the 2000AD comic was based in part on Conan The Barbarian, but drew his most direct influences from the Celtic hero of legend Cú Chulainn. Now reports are coming in that a movie based on that character's exploits is on the way, and none other than Magneto himself will be bulking up (I would assume anyway) to play him..
According to Screen Daily..
Michael Fassbender is to take the lead in a new project written by Ronan Bennett, whose credits include Public Enemies and The Hamburg Cell.
Fassbender will star as Cuchulain, the central hero of the Ulster Myth Cycle in the film (one of the four branches of Irish mythology), which has a working title Irish Myths.
I'm glad "Irish Myths" is only the working title, it sounds like a brand of cream liqueur. Apparently funding is in place, but no director has come on board yet. Here Read more: |
