Should have some cool announcements to make on the movie/TV/comics fronts in the not-too-distant future, but for now, here's a random collection of press clippings with my last name spelled in a variety of comical ways:
First up, over at the esteemed NEW YORK TIMES, Ross Johnson writes about the super-bright New Line Cinema executive Richard Brener, and gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how Y: THE LAST MAN was pitched as a film by the fine folks at Benderspink. I'm thrilled to be part of the process now, but like sausage, cigars, and federal laws, you probably don't wanna know how movie deals are made.

Le pitch selon Richard Brener et Chris Bender de chez New Line :

Then Mr. Bender got to the matter at hand, a pitch for a movie based on "Y: The Last Man," a graphic novel by Brian K. Vaughan, Pia Guerra and Jose Marzan Jr.
The basic idea, as is often the case in today's Hollywood, is quite simple: the movie begins with shots of all the world's men — presidents, airline pilots, farmers, doctors and the rest — dropping dead for an unknown reason. All except one, a slacker who spends the rest of the movie chasing a ticking clock as he hunts down the reason for the genetic apocalypse while trying to adjust to being the only man left with billions of women.
"There are 15 of these 'last man left' stories going around the town, but they're all comedies," said Mr. Brener, who shepherded last summer's hit "Wedding Crashers" to the screen. "This is a thriller and a love story. It could work."

Et apparemment, New Line serait aussi intéressé par Ex Machina.
