Comics artist/writer Frank Miller will direct a film based on cartoonist Will Eisner's famed strip, "The Spirit," Reuters reports.
Production is slated to begin in about a year. Miller already is working on a draft but must first finish "Sin City 2," said Deborah Del Prete, whose Odd Lot Entertainment banner will co-finance and produce "The Spirit."
Let's hope the result pays homage to Eisner's original version and isn't just another tired "dark" Frank Miller take on things.

In other Doctor Who news, composer Murray Gold's sountrack music from the latest seasons of the show will be available on CD soon.
