Below is the trailer for the upcoming Frank Miller film The Spirit, based on the pulp comic classic by legendary Will Eisner. Notice the use of the words “classic” and “legendary”, both of which are used appropriately when speaking of Mr. Eisner, who’s name graces the most sought after award in the comic industry. So it’ll come as no surprise that even though Miller is helming this I’m just a bit apprehensive. I love Miller’s work and his ability to literally bring comics to life but this is a venerated character he’s tackling. One that helped create the hardboiled detective archetype in the comic world. The Spirit will probably be his biggest test in adaptation.
But enough of me being all wordy and stuff. Take a look-see at the trailer, which is followed up by some interviews with Miller and some others involved in the project.
