Bosco685 Posted March 26, 2021 Author Share Posted March 26, 2021 Quote Michael B. Jordan and Reginald Hudlin are producing the feature adaptation of the DC hero. Randy McKinnon, who wrote Disney+’s football drama Safety, has been tapped to pen Warner Bros. and DC’s Static Shock. Michael B. Jordan is producing the feature adaptation of the cult DC hero via his Outlier Society production shingle along with Reginald Hudlin, who directed Safety. The project centers on Static, who first appeared in 1993's Static no. 1 via Milestone Comics, a now-defunct company founded by Black writers and artists to help make comics a more inclusive space and which had distribution through DC. A decade later the hero was revived for the Static Shock animated series, centering on Virgil Hawkins, a teenager who transforms into a superhero who gains electromagnetic powers after being exposed to strange gas. The series was noteworthy for being the rare animated show to be headlined by a Black character. The hero made his way to the mainstream DC Comics universe in 2008. The project has an urgency and agency surrounding it thanks to its heavy-hitting producers, who have stated an intention to build a cinematic universe centered around black superheroes.

Bosco685 Posted May 6, 2021 Author Share Posted May 6, 2021 Quote Michael B. Jordan has given an update on the status of his live-action Static Shock movie. During an interview with Collider, Jordan revealed the film was still coming together. "Right now we have a writer, Randy McKinnon, who's putting together take and a draft right now, really excited," he said. Jordan continued, "I mean, again, as a kid growing up, watching Static Shock, it was something that inspired me. And had that type of representation at a young age, it was really important to me. And I know it would be important to a lot of other kids today. So to be able to adapt the live-action version of that, I'm really, really excited about. So no real timelines, and I guess no real updates or anything like that. But we're in the process of building that out. And I can't wait to have something more to tell you guys later."
