We've all been a little worried ever since we heard D.J. "Eagle Eye" Caruso would be adapting Brian K. Vaughan's genderpocalypse comic book series Y the Last Man with Shia LeBoeuf in the lead role. And now it turns out our fears may have been justified. Caruso said today that he had to add a major new plot point to amp up the action. More »

He may not have won your hearts as Mutt in this summer's Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull, but Shia LeBeouf is still trying to make you fall in love with his dubious charms, even if he has to be the last man on Earth for it to happen.

Director D.J. Caruso still wants Shia LaBeouf to portray the lonely male survivor Yorick in gender apocalypse comic Y: The Last Man, which apparently means he's trying to make a career out of directing movies starring "The Beef." Caruso's already made Disturbia and Eagle Eye with The Beef, and now has plans to make a trilogy out of Y featuring Shia saying "no no no no no" a lot. While there's no doubt that Shia has some unexplained mind-control power that makes teenagers flock to him, we don't think he'd do justice to the role, although if the other choice is Topher Grace (Y artist Pia Guerra's choice), then we say bring on the LaBeouf.

Screenwriter D.J. Caruso originally wanted to fit all 60 issues of man-killing plague action into one film, but now he says it should probably be a trilogy instead. The first film would adapt the first 14 issues of Y, leaving an open-ended conclusion for two sequels. [Slashfilm] More »
