The quite insane Crossed is going to be coming to life and may also be hitting the big screen. Comic Book Resources report that Garth Ennis, the man behind the series, will be writing and directing a series of live-action Crossed webisodes with a plan is to follow these up with a  Crossed feature film. The film will also written and directed by Ennis and the plan is to begin filming in the spring, with a debut for the webisodes later on next year. Ennis said that the webisodes will serves as “little vignettes” into the Crossed world.

Unfamiliar with the series? Crossed is grim. It’s not quite a zombie story but it’s also not quite a post-apocalyptic tale.

In the blink of an eye, humanity is lost, and the Crossed are upon us. Men, women, and children alike fall victim to the mystery infection that makes killers out of parents and rapists out of lovers. Ruthless, berserk, and evil beyond measure, these cackling demons spread their plague across the Earth, bringing humanity to near-extinction. Now, a small band of survivors make their cautious way across a deserted America, existing in a state of constant terror. The only thing they have in common is their determination to survive… but in this frightening new world, survival has a cost all its own. How far will they go to stay alive, and can they do so without become monsters themselves?
