Deadpool director Tim Miller has been locked down to direct a live-action film adaptation of William Gibson’s lauded 1984 cyberpunk novel Neuromancer, per THR. Simon Kinberg (X-Men) will produce the film, which as of yet has no writer.
Nothing else has been announced, so I guess it’s time to play the waiting game!
Synopsis:
The Matrix is a world within the world, a global consensus-hallucination, the representation of every byte of data in cyberspace…
Henry Dorsett Case was the sharpest data-thief in the business, until vengeful former employees crippled his nervous system. But now a new and very mysterious employer recruits him for a last-chance run. The target: an unthinkably powerful artificial intelligence orbiting Earth in service of the sinister Tessier-Ashpool business clan. With a dead man riding shotgun and Molly, mirror-eyed street-samurai, to watch his back, Case embarks on an adventure that ups the ante on an entire genre of fiction.
