The Terrifying Super-Lions Of The Post-Apocalypse
More proof that environmental collapse is the new apocalypse: Wanted scribes Michael Brandt and Derek Haas have just sold a movie script called All Creatures Great And Small to Sony and producer Neal Moritz. In the future, after the fossil fuels dry up, humans retreat inside walled forts, to defend ourselves against savage, super-evolved animals. Like super-bears and super-lions. (And fearsome super-kangaroos?) It's a fun Jurassic Park-type story, says Brandt: "Because of people's inability to quench their thirst for oil and consumption of resources, we basically ruin the planet, and the planet fights back... And part of that is the quick evolution of many of the animals." [Hollywood Reporter]
