‘Wanted’ Book-to-Film Comparison Featurette
space
Empress Eve   |  @   |  

WantedEmpire has posted an exclusive behind-the-scenes featurette for Wanted, the upcoming action-thriller from director Timur Bekmambetov.

Wanted was adapted from the graphic novel by Mark Miller, and this new video compares the upcoming film to its source material. Between clips of the film and panels from the comic book are interviews with Millar and Bekmambetov.

Millar says in the video that the first 40 minutes of the film are directly taken from the comic, which is promising to hear. One of the concerns Wanted fans have with the film is that it might be too much of a departure from the graphic novel, especially since the filmmakers decided not to include the superhero costumes. This featurette does a good job in laying these concerns to rest.

Check out the Wanted entry in Geeks of Doom’s recent feature Books to Film 2008: 10 Books You Should Read Before Seeing The Movie.

Wanted, which stars Angelina Jolie, James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, and Common, hits theaters June 27, 2008.

  2. The further Wanted the movie is from Wanted the comic, the better it has a chance of being.
