Y: The Last Man movie moves forward

ICv2 reports: "New Line Cinema has announced that D.J. Caruso will direct and Carl Ellsworth will write the big screen live action adaptation of Brian K. Vaughan’s epic science fiction comic book series, Y: The Last Man.  Caruso and Ellsworth recently teamed up on the sleeper hit Disturbia, which starred Shia LeBeouf in a clever reworking of the storyline of Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo, with wheelchair bound photographer Jimmy Stewart replaced in Disturbia by a grounded teenager played by LeBeouf (who is rumored to be a prime candidate to portray Yorick in Y: The Last Man)."

Now I know everybody’s in a rush to get out the door for San Diego, but they’re mixing their Stewart/Hitchcock films. Disturbia was a reworking of Rear Window, not Vertigo. Vertigo, as we all know, has the cool blonde in it. You know– Karen Berger.
