Let's face it, BEN 10 is one of the most popular animated series ever seen in recent times. Since 2005, Cartoon Network has produced a 100+ episodes of three separate series as well as one animated and two live-action tele movies.
Now according to Variety, producer Joel Silver has signed to develop a live-action feature version, with an eye toward distribution via Warner Bros. Here's what he had to say about the upcoming project.
"I think we have to try something fresh and go at it in a way that stays true to the original material. I have a 5-year-old and a 9-year-old, so it's somewhere between them."
On the plus side, Stu Snyder, who is the chief operating officer of Turner's animation, young adults and kids media division added his comment regarding Silver's involvement.
"I cannot think of anyone better suited than Joel Silver to develop a theatrical action-driven adventure based on our franchise Ben 10."
Meanwhile, Dark Castle's Steve Richards has gone on a record stating that the live-action version of BEN 10 would be completely recast from the character's previous live-action incarnations, and wants to go as big as possible with the project.
"We really see this as a large, big-budgeted tentpole movie."
