Mark Millar Pursuing Bradley Cooper To Play Johnny Bolt In ‘Supercrooks’!

A few months back Mark Millar, the man behind Supercrooks, revealed that Ryan Reynolds or Bradley Cooper would be his ideal choice for the role of Johnny Bolt in Nacho Vigalondo’s upcoming big screen adaptation. Earlier this evening on the Millarworld Forums Mark Millar confirmed that production on the film is moving ahead as well as that Millar would be contacting Cooper’s people tomorrow in order to begin talks. Even though this doesn’t mean that the actor will accept this does mean that this project IS indeed moving forward. Can we just go ahead and say “Hell yeah!” right now?

“We’ve got a great director, a great screenplay and as of Christmas we’ll have time to start prepping this sucker. Who we gonna call? Bradley Cooper. I am literally calling up his guys tomorrow and want to secure him as Johnny Bolt. It’s about TIME he did a super-movie and having him as a likeable super-villain in a super-heist flick sounds about perfect. He’s our ideal choice and we’re going to pursue this tomorrow.”

Millar also confirmed that there is another Millarworld film that will be going into production in the spring and we should expect an announcement in the next few weeks.
