Monster Manga Coming to Film
New Line takes a stab at adaptation.
April 07, 2005 - After selling 25 million comic books in Japan, plenty overseas, and being transformed into an anime series, Monster is coming to America. According to a news piece at The Hollywood Reporter, New Line Cinema has reached an agreement to produce a film based on the popular manga, which now spans 18 volumes.

The project is in too early a stage to name any acting or directing talent, but New Line production executives Cale Boyter (Dumb and Dumberer, The Butterfly Effect) and Magnus Kim (Monster-in-Law) will oversee the project.

Monster is a supernatural thriller written by accomplished manga author Naoki Urasawa. The story surrounds a surgeon who saves the life of a young boy against his boss's orders. When he later discovers that the boy is a genetically modified violent killer, he decides to hunt down his former patient and uncover the conspiracy behind him.
