Hillary Swank as a badass former space soldier? Hey, why not. The girl convinced me she could box in “Million Dollar Baby”, so I think she’s got the physicality to carry this off. I guess we’ll find out soon, because Swank has signed on to star in “Shrapnel”, which will be based on a comic book of the same name by Nick Sagan and M. Zachary Sherman, based on the concept by Sagan and Mark Long.
Here’s the plot:
Set in the year 2250, the story follows a former Solar Alliance Marine, to be played by Swank, who spearheads an uprising on Venus, the last free colony, against an oppressive solar government in order to fight for the freedom of her people.
Sounds pretty good, right? I’ll give it a shot…
