Disney has acquired the rights to graphic novel MONSTER ATTACK NETWORK, per THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER.
The 2007 novel, published by AiT/Planet Lar, was written by Marc Bernardin and Adam Freeman with illustrations by Nima Sorat. Jason Netter is producing via his Kickstart Ent. banner.
MONSTER is an adventure tale set on the picturesque Pacific island of Lapuatu, where giant monsters live. A team of adventurers deal with monster rampages, crises and the clean-up, but faces its biggest challenge when a shady industrialist comes to the island.
Disney's Shane Snoke brought the book to Brigham Taylor. The project, described as having a MEN IN BLACK tone, could be a tentpole with franchise potential.
Netter's Kickstart was a producer on Universal's WANTED. He also has AiT's COURIERS set up at Rogue and the Garth Ennis comic THE BOYS at Columbia. He is an exec producer on the ABC Family pilot NOBODY, also based on an AiT comic.
