Sylvain White talks Ronin:
Hi guys, here's the last update of the week, I'll be back with more news this weekend! Director Sylvain White (The Losers) had a very interesting chat with Coming Soon about his adaptation of Frank Miller's Ronin. The story revolves around a Japanese ronin reincarnated in a futuristic New York. White still wants to direct it, but he's taking his time, check this out;
"That's something I had to let go of for a period of time while I was directing The Losers but I'm back here in Los Angeles and as I'm finishing post-production on The Losers, I will be diving back into the development of Ronin. I'm just working along with the studio executives developing the story elements and they're attaching a writer in the spring to do a new pass on it.
It's a very complex graphic novel and it needs very careful attention.
I'm taking my time with it. If I'm able to stay on it and develop it the way I want, I just want it to be done right. I don't want to rush it or anything like that. I want the right writer on it and it to be done carefully. So that is one of the projects I have in development."
