Jeffrey Dean Morgan leads THE LOSERS
WATCHMEN star Jeffrey Dean Morgan will lead THE LOSERS, the Warner Bros. adaptation of the Vertigo series comic book say The Hollywood Reporter. The graphic novel follows a special forces team betrayed by their handler and left for dead. The Losers regroup in the interest of revenge and the opportunity to remove their names from a secret CIA death list and to conduct covert operations against the CIA and its interests. Morgan would play Clay, the group's leader, whose signature look favors black suits without ties. Which I'm guessing makes him the guy in the middle here... 28 WEEKS LATER and THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES actor Jeremy Renner leaked last week that he was in talks with producer Joel Silver for a role in the movie. Sylvain White (STOMP THE YARD) directs the movie later this year.
