The London-based Hammer Films has acquired the rights to the film adaptation of the award-winning novel Boneshaker by Cherie Priest, published in 2009 (still unreleased here in Italy).

In this “classic adventure of zombies and steampunk airships”, as defined on the cover, we are catapulted into an alternate version of 1880 in Seattle, walled city due to a toxic gas that has turned many of its inhabitants into zombies.
We will follow the adventures of a young widow searching for her teenage son in the underworld of Seattle, facing a powerful criminal boss, pirates of the sky and finally heavily armed refugees.

The film will be produced in collaboration with Cross Creek Pictures who also produced The Black Swan with Natalie Portman.

Tobin Armbrust, supervisor of the project development for Hammer Films, said: “First of all, this is a great story: bring to life a steampunk style novel on the big screen is something special and unique”. (altro…)
