October 16, 2000 Frank Miller (writer of the Batman: Year One comic series and upcoming film script) recently told EON MAGAZINE's Mothership <http://www.mothership.com>, about his writing of the upcoming YEAR ONE movie. Miller said the following: "Darren [Aronofsky] and I had a lot of fun working together on the RONIN movie project," Miller said. We make a good team, I think... Darren in particular wanted me to make YEAR ONE." "I expect to to have a lot of fun with YEAR ONE," he said. "From the get go, I see manyb things that need changing -- but ultimately even if the movie gets made, mine will only be one of many voices calling the shots. I'll bring my very best efforts to the script. I won't write a single line I don't believe in." Miller also said, "The movie business is wild. There's so much money involved, and so many people, that anything can happen. Maybe Darren and I will set the world on fire. Maybe our script will wind up sitting next to all the other could-have-beens that litter the shelves of studio execs. I'm certain we can do a good job -- but anybody who isn't financing his own movie himself is foolish to predict his fate -- or his involvement in it. |
