The story is told in a contemporary film noir style, according to The Hollywood Reporter.The comic sees Frankenstein’s monster as a private investigator, Dracula as a criminal mastermind, and the Invisible Man as a spy. Grevioux is set to handling the screenplay adaptation with Tatopoulos (who made his directorial debut on "Underworld: Rise of the Lycans") in the director’s chair. Robert Sanchez and Chris Patton have signed on to produce the film through Death Ray. ShockTilYouDrop.com’s Ryan Turek is co-developing the film for Death Ray.
