Up and coming screenwriter Bek Smith is set to write the screenplay adaptation for Mark Millar’s “Reborn” comic book set up at Netflix, according to an individual with knowledge of the project.
Chris McKay is attached to direct the project.
Netflix acquired Millar’s company, Millarworld in 2017 and since then has been developing projects with Mark Millar and Lucy Millar. Millarworld is the comic book publishing company founded by Mark Millar and is a creator-owned line that holds the rights to the U.K. writer’s 18 yet-to-be-optioned properties such as “Jupiter’s Legacy” and “Mph” — as well as any stories and characters that Millarworld will create in the future.

After the success of Bird Box, Sandra Bullock will be involved with another Netflix movie, adapting Mark Millar comic Reborn.
Sandra Bullock has booked her next Netflix feature – for now just as a producer, though that could very well change. The Oscar-winning actress, who is coming off the phenomenal, dangerous-meme-spawning success of Bird Box, is set to be involved in – of all things – a comic book movie, called Reborn, which adapts the Mark Millar/Greg Capullo Image Comics fantasy-action title.
Netflix’s feature adaptation of Reborn will see Bullock onboard as a producer according to Deadline and a confirmation by THR. Roy Lee and Miri Yoon of Vertigo Films, the company behind highest-grossing horror film of all-time in 2017’s It, will also produce. Interestingly, the report by the former points to the possibility that Bullock – 2010 Best Lead Actress Oscar winner for The Blind Side, nominated in the...
