JMS Comics to Movies?

[Jan]

Found in that Nerdist interview mentioned elsewhere:

N: You’ve had a lot taking place on the comics front. One of those projects is close to moving to the screen…

JMS: Yeah, Ten Grand has been optioned by CBS Studios. We’ll see where that’s gonna go. There are a couple of other companies that are nosing around the rights to Rising Stars. It might be animation, oddly enough. There’s also Dream Police. There’s a lot that’s cooking right now. None of it necessarily has come to fruition yet. But these things take the time they take. The new Superman: Earth One graphic novel just came out a few months ago, and it’s done very well for DC. I’m working on another project for them right now in the Earth One universe. I can’t talk about it until it’s time that they announce it. But coming back to that universe is just a lot of fun.

Please, let it be Wonder Woman!!

I wouold LOVE to see an animated Rising Stars, especially if the quality was up to the same standards as the DC Comics animated films. Whilst I'm not a fan of most of DCs film output, their animated stuff is second to none. It's one of the few things they totally outdo Marvel on.

On the 'Red Mars' thread somebody mentioned wanting a live-action 'Rising Stars' movie and JMS teased:

i Be careful what you wish for....

Of course we've seen various people sniffing around this one on and off for years but it's interesting nevertheless.
