The director of the first Deadpool movie is currently set to handle a much different kind of comic book movie.According to The Hollywood Reporter, Tim Miller is poised to direct Alien Legion, an adaptation of a comic book once published by Marvel through the company’s Epic Comics imprint. A creator-owned title, Warner Bros. Discovery now holds the rights to the title. The studio plans to turn the series into a space opera franchise, similar to the Star Wars brand.Created by Carl Potts, Alan Zelenetz, and Frank Cirocco, Alien Legion follows a space-faring peacekeeping group called Force Nomad. The series in many ways embodied similar themes to Star Trek, with various species and alien races working together for the common good. One difference is that characters such as Sarigar (who has a half-snake body) are many times at odds instead of idealistically friendly with each other, especially given the history of their people. Beyond these themes, the central idea is that the group is the “French Legion in outer space.” Coincidentally, Carl Potts developed the series across several years, with Star Wars becoming a major influence.
