Variety reports that Landis will helm Ghoulishly Yours, William M. Gaines, a biopic about the life of EC Comics publisher and groundbreaking horror maven William M. Gaines.
At the height of EC Comics’ success, Gaines was seen as an anti-establishment figurehead because of his outspoken views regarding comics’ effect on the minds of the young. To this day almost everyone with some form of creative job in horror can list Gaines as an influence, so this one’s been a long time coming.
The script for the doc was penned by Joel Eisenberg, who developed the project with Landis. Keep it here for more as the film moves forward!
