The Batman, Part II

Radu Jude’s Frankenstein
During a recent interview with Cultura la dubă (via World of Reel), director Radu Jude (Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World) revealed Sebastian Stan is attached to star in his upcoming adaptation of Frankenstein set on “CIA black sites on Romanian soil.”
I had the idea to develop a story that would begin with the reality of CIA black sites on Romanian soil from 20 years ago, and then merge that with another cinematic myth—the Frankenstein monster. I pitched it to Sebastian, and he said yes. So I’ve started writing the script, but it’ll take some time.
