Warner Brothers Begins to Develop “The Teen Titans”
1-Jun-2007
Written by: Edward Olivier

Studio hires the screenwriter to adapt comic book to screens.

Mark Verheiden (Smallville, Battlestar Galactica) was hired to write the live action version of the comic book, “The Teen Titans,” DC Comics’ Junior Justice League.

In a posting at his official blog, Verheiden revealed some aspects of the project. "I wish there were an emoticon big enough to express how thrilled I am to be involved in the project! I'm not a fan of super-early spoilers, but I will say the script involves the Nightwing character and will be exploring the Titans at an interesting (and universal) crossroads in their lives." He added, "I'm not sure why so many folks are assuming we won't be using the 'top tier' Titans. I'm not ready to list the characters we ARE using (other than Nightwing), but you won't be disappointed. There's also a lot of discussion about possible 'rights issues.' There were internal conversations re: which characters we'll be using, but last time I checked, Time/Warner still owned DC Comics, meaning it's all in the family."

Akiva Goldsman and Kerry Foster are producing the feature through their company, Weed Road Pictures.
