Universal Gets Close with Proximity Effect

The Top Cow comic book ā€œProximity Effectā€, created by Roger Mincheff, has had its screen rights picked up by Universal Pictures with Stephen Sommers (ā€œThe Mummyā€, ā€œVan Helsingā€) and Bob Ducsay producing and Mincheff aboard as an executive producer. The script will be written by Jason Rothenberg (ā€œSurrogateā€).

The comic is about an ordinary woman who exhibits extraordinary powers, but only when she is within a certain distance of a particular guy.

At this point, it doesn’t look like Sommers will direct the movie, as he is currently working on a movied based on ā€œFlash Gordonā€ for Universal.
