YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHO'S THE NEXT BIG NAME MOVIE STAR TO MAKE A COMIC BOOK MOVIE...VIN DIESEL!

You may or may not have already heard that the star of "The Fast and Furious" films Vin Diesel is set to star in the first Valiant Comics comic book adapted film "Bloodshot".

According to DigitalSpy.com and Collider.com's website the official synopsis for this Sony produced film is Vin Diesel will be playing Ray Garrison a.k.a Bloodshot who used to be called Angelo Mortalli a soldier who was subjected against his will to the experimental Project Rising Spirit. With nano-computers injected into his blood and his memory completely wiped, Motalli becomes the pale skinned Bloodshot and with the ability to mind-meld with any computer, regenerating powers and the ability to shape-shift he struggles to reconnect with who he was whilst trying to learn what sort of weapon he has become aided by a team of fellow augmented combatants code named Chainsaw.

According to IMDb.com's website Dave Wilson will direct this film, the screenplay has been written by Eric Heisserer who also wrote the Oscar nominated "Arrival" and most recently Netflix's "Birdbox" starring Sandra Bullock, this will also star Sam Heughan who you may or may not recognise from "Outlander" who played Jamie, Eliza Gonzalez and Toby Kebbell.

Also according to Collider.com's website Sony have described this movie as:

"...tonally and aesthetically influenced by high-concept sci-fi blockbusters of the late 80's..."

So from this Collider.com are thinking of films like "Terminator", "Total Recall" or "Robocop".

So...this may make me sound very cynical but I'm thinking that this is going to add more money to the Vin Diesel empire along with the shit load of money he must be earning for the "Fast and Furious" films.

According to IMDb.com's website this film is pencilled in for a 21st February 2020 release in the UK but if you live outside of the UK and want to know when this film will be released in your country please go to IMDb.com's website and put "Bloodshot" in the search and where it says the UK release date press this and this will take you to another page with other countries and the release dates.
