Guy Ritchie to direct a live action Lobo film!



Not sure why this seems so fitting, rumor or not, but it looks like "The Main Man" himself, Lobo, may be getting the big screen treatment. My knowledge of Logo doesn't go beyond his appearances in the DC animated shows, and maybe some JLA appearances, but I think he'd make a great character to put on film. This movie will be next in line after Ritchie's current project, Sherlock Holmes. According to Variety:

"In the film, he is a seven-foot tall, blue-skinned, indestructible and heavily muscled anti-hero who drives a pimped out motorcycle, and lands on Earth in search of four fugitives who are bent on wreaking havoc. Lobo teams with a small town teenaged girl to stop the creatures."

What concerns me is the PG-13 rating Logo will get. Sure, they pulled it off in Superman The Animated Series, but I'd prefer to see a more graphic bounty hunter. We'll see what happens... if this even comes to fruition.
