Wanted - Trailer

Writing by Chris on Wednesday, 31 of October , 2007 at 10:21 pm

Mark Millar’s Wanted is a pretty cool comic, that seems to have been made into a completely different idea of a movie, which still looks fun.

Wanted trailers and video clips on Yahoo! Movies

The premise of Wanted is that all the world’s super-villains decided to band together in 1986 and use their vast collective powers — including mad science, magic and mind control — to eliminate all the world’s superheroes
and rewrite reality in their own dark image; prior to this the world
was a brighter, more hopeful place (a clear reference to the end of the
Silver Age).
Superheroes are remembered as fiction (as they are in the real world),
and behind the scenes a cabal of the leading super-villains run the
entire world.

Mama’s boy Wesley Gibson
discovers that his recently-assassinated father was a super-criminal
called The Killer, and that Wesley has inherited his perfect aim and
uncanny skill with any weapon. Wesley enters a new life, and must deal
with the most dangerous and evil people in the world — whose ranks now
include Wesley himself.

Became:

A young man (McAvoy) finds out his long lost father is an assassin. And
when his father is murdered, the son is recruited into his father’s old
organization and trained by a man named Sloan (Freeman) to follow in
his dad’s footsteps.
