Thursday
6th February 2003: Queen & Country Update:
Writer John Rogers has
been spilling the beans on the development of the script for Queen & Country
"The script very closely follows the arc of the first two stories in the
book. Greg's great work in counterpointing Tara's emotional collapse vs. her dangerous
job set a high bar for the script adaptation. Much like I constantly found the
solutions to my writing problems while adapting Mage by going back to Matt's Wagner's
original work (and occasionally calling him in a panic), the Queen & Country
books make my life as an adapter much easier. There are a few sequences that are
'opened up' visually, making them more filmic. Tara does slightly less laying
around hung-over in her t-shirt and slightly more running around doing spy things.
And fans of BBC's The Sandbaggers will probably spot a few references in there
as well. The script also tries to stay in the 'real world', like the source material,
as much as possible. No jet cars. Not that I don't like jet cars. Although I'd
prefer a laser watch." The movie is being developed by Tall Trees Productions
at 20th Century Fox.
