Coming To The Big Screen

Filed under: Film Flickers

mx0036066.jpg

And the comic book heroes just keep coming to the cinema!

The next hero to be transformed from the comics to film will be Hercules. And, no, the TV version, Kevin Sorbo, won't be reprising his role from the '90s show.

The flick will be directed by Peter Berg, who also directed Hancock and will be based on the five-issue comicbook series by Steve Moore.

The movie, which will be called Hercules: The Thracian Wars, is said to stay true to the comicbook.

Producer Barry Levine says, "What resonated for them was that this was character driven, about a character who’s more man than god, with conflicts and redemption."

We not sure we'd classify Hercules in the same category as Superman, Batman, and Spiderman. He just seems more mythical to us.

Will U go watch the new Hercules flick?

      *Gossip Gangstress



    36. 36

      Um . . . no. I can't see Hercules being anything but corny. Over-muscled numskull plods around swinging his big sword. No thanks. Too fantasy-based for me.



    37. 37

      YES!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG Can't wait!! They should bring back Kevin Sorbo though

    38. Jason says – reply to this


      38

      Only if they cast Jason Lewis to play the part of Hercules!! He would be perfect for it!

    39. midi says – reply to this

      no Sorbo??? What's Hercules without Sorbo???!!!???

      noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

    40. Russe says – reply to this


      40

      NO WAY! Kevin Sorbo will suck. When will they learn that they have make it totally new if its gonna be any good. And I even liked Hancock!

    41. Jen says – reply to this


      41

      It's a mistake not to put Kevin Sorbo in the role. He is H-O-T! A good friend of mine got behind him in the security line at an Arizona airport recently, and apparently, he still has a large fan base because people kept coming up to him for autographs. But yeah, I'd definitely watch the movie.

    42. beaut says – reply to this


      42

      Yeah I would go and see it!

      49

    57. Sorbo says – reply to this


      57

      I'd only go see it if Kevin Sorbo was starring in it. He IS HERC!
      I agree that Lucy Lawless was awesome as Xena as well. I'd go see her in a movie version as well.

    58. Gene says – reply to this


      58

      I agree………..XENA movie. Bring back her daughter AND Callisto….even though they're the same soul. But they can split and duke it out.

    59. ck says – reply to this


      59

      i agree bring xena to the big screen lucy lawless was hot as hell as xena!!!! crew hercules!



    60. 60

      haha i loved hercules as a kid. oh the 90s. but now it would just be too cheesy. idk how they could make it better. plus it wont have kevin sorbo :(
      but a xena movie would be awesome. i miss lucy lawless.

    61. Eurom says – reply to this

    63. Rick says – reply to this


      63

      Hancock's direction was chaotic and distracting, it made a ho-hum movie suckier. That guy has no business directing movies. Too bad for Hercules.

    64. Lady says – reply to this


      64

      If someone hot was in it like….. Tyrese or Tyson Beckford or Vin Diesel… With lots of sexy muscle shots of course. HELL YES! Been a while since we have seen a hot half naked guy in a movie where he is not just topless for a few minutes!

    65. mp says – reply to this


      65

      BRING BACK KEVIN SORBO!!!
      LOL

    66. Lady says – reply to this


      66

      Also, say no to Kevin Sorbo! He must be like 50 something now, there is nothin hot about a old man! We need some yummy fresh hot new talent….. NAKED! bring on the nakedness!

      So nice to see a true family man - um kudos to the wife & kids! Please don't do the reality bs

    68. Shaun says – reply to this


      68

      It seem the general consensus. We want to see a Xena flick more than a hercules flick?

    69. andy says – reply to this

    70. lagu says – reply to this

      I don't care shit about Hercules, but I really want see XENA-movie!!!! I rather watch hot chicks than not so goodlooking guys;)

    71. Kimbe says – reply to this


      71

      Kevin Sorros was a hunk so it depends on who would play Hercules.

    72. dzz says – reply to this


      72

      Yeah why not?
      I like that kind of movie.A Xena one could be good too.

    73. Stupi says – reply to this

    75. Natas says – reply to this


      75

      Hahahahha, that's like saying Ben Hur was originally a 50s film character.

      Hercules is the Roman name for the mythical Greek hero Heracles, son of Zeus and the mortal Alcmena. Don't you people know anything about mythology, culture or history?

    76. Koko says – reply to this


      76

      Wouldn't a Xena movie rock hundred times more?

      YES!!

    79. A-1 says – reply to this


      79

      Hell no I'm not going to see this crap. You're right, Hercules will never come close to the other comic book heros like Spider-Man or Batman.

    80. xena says – reply to this


      80

      Yes I want to see Conan…but only if he show much flesh…kevin sorbo will be too old. They need to re-start the movie…hunky and muscular with small thong ;)

    81. lilla says – reply to this


      81

      whyyyyyyyyyyyyy bother if sorbo isnt in it? yes, the show was corny, but i loved it for one simple reason - KEVIN SORBO. duhhhhhh.

    82. Amy says – reply to this


      82

      If it had Kevin Sorbo in it, I would buy tickets in advance (loved that show). I'll probably just wait for someone else to rent it since he's not…unless the previews are really good
