What Mark Millar comic book hasn.t been optioned into a movie? Actually, there are a lot .cause the man just can.t stop churning out new comics. But we.ve seen two Kick-Ass movies, one Kingsman: The Secret Service, the Angelina Jolie-led Wanted, and plans for a movie version of his Star Wars-esque Starlight.

After the likes of Wanted, Kick-Ass and Kingsman: The Secret Service all received stellar film adaptations, another of Mark Millar’s original comic book tales has now been earmarked for the same treatment. And it’s not even hit shelves yet.
Chrononauts, the first issue of which lands on newsstands next week, has been snapped up by Universal with Fast & Furious writer Chris Morgan attached to produce through his production label. It tells the story of two time traveling astronauts whose jaunts into the vast expanse of space and time lead the pair into a series of adventures. Millar created the series along with artist Sean Gordon Murphy, both of whom will executive produce the movie.
Here’s the full synopsis for the book, which we can assume will also be the story outline for the movie:
Corbin Quinn and Danny Reilly are two red-blooded American guys who also happen to be scientific geniuses.
