Director Francis Lawrence has been tapped to direct New Republic's adaptation of graphic novel Stalag-X, per Deadline. The book, written by New York Times bestselling authors Kevin J. Anderson and Steven L. Sears, dares to ask what it truly means to be human. British screenwriter Joy Wilkinson will adapt the source material for the big screen.
"Stalag-X tells the story of a reclusive human soldier imprisoned in an alien POW camp on a harsh distant planet in the midst of a decade-long interstellar conflict.
"When I first read Stalag-X, I was immediately drawn to the rich, unique world that Kevin and Steven created. I'm thrilled to be collaborating with Joy to bring their graphic novel to life on screen alongside Brian and Brad, who, as champions of bold storytelling, are the perfect partners for this."
