Now you have it. Slipknot co-founder M.Shawn Crahan (AKA Clown) is set to make his debut as a director of a movie! Officer Downe is the lucky flick to have Clown rub his creative magic all over it. Originally a graphic novel created by Joe Casey (Man of Action) and artist Chris Burnhamit details the story of a brutal supercop who continually dies in the line of duty, only to be resurrected by his superiors and sent back onto the streets each and every time.
Joe Casey is a founding partner in Man of Action Studios, the entertainment company who created Ben 10. Founded by comic book creators and acclaimed comic writers, many Man of Action titles are being turner into features, including The Great Unknown, and television series including Casey’s Disco Destroyer. This is what he had to say: “I make comics because I love them, not to be back-door movie pitches but this turned out to be a unique opportunity to go deeper and explore the characters in ways our printed page count prevented.”
