I Am Legend 2 Rights Sealed Up
Source: ShockTillYouDrop.com
January 3, 2008

Given the box office figures, this shouldn't come as any surprise.

An inside source, who wishes to remain anonymous, tells ShockTillYouDrop.com author Richard Matheson has signed off on sequel rights for the smash hit I Am Legend. Matheson wrote the original 1954 novel upon which Francis Lawrence's film is based.

This does not necessarily mean a sequel is a "go." It simply gives Warner Bros. peace of mind should they find the right direction to take the story in and opt to move forward on a second chapter. If that does happen, it would be the first time the "Legend" material was sequelized.

So.

If I AM LEGEND: 2 *does* gets the Green Light to GO...

... SPECULATE AWAY! rclxm9.gif

Will it be a new sequel? (since its the author himself that sold the rights to WB)
Or will it be the prequel, like its prequel comic adaptation?

Comic Prequel to I Am Legend Revealed

I Am Legend, starring Will Smith, tells the story of the last human man in a world of vampires. But how did the world get to be that way? According to Comic Book Resources, we will have an opportunity to answer that very question in a graphic novel to be put out by DC Comics Vertigo imprint.

The graphic novel will draw upon such creative talents as comic artist Bill Sienkiewicz, screenwriter Mark Protosevich and award-winning science fiction author, Orson Scott Card.

From DC's solicitation for the graphic novel:

A deadly virus has taken hold of the world - rejected by a few (the immune), killing many (the dead), and leaving the rest (the infected) - who live on to hunt the living, after dark. The following are voices paying homage to Richard Matheson's classic novel. This is the experience of a dying mankind and the foretelling of a new world before we meet the legend, Robert Neville.

In a nutshell, the prequel story is all about "the events of how it all happened" that were not shown in the movie.
(the movie is more on the aftermaths and a few flashbacks of how it started).

i miss Fresh Prince and DJ Jazzy Jeff.

"Now this is a story all about how my
Life got flipped turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I become the prince of a town called Bel-Air

In West Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys, who were up to no good
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air."

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought, "Nah, forget it. Yo Homes.. To Bel-Air!"

I.. pulled... up to the house at about 7 or 8
and I yelled to the cabby "Yo homes, smell ya later!"
looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air."

Bleh. Look for the IDW graphic novel adaptation of the novel. Available at good bookstores around RM 60 - 70.

Faithful and tells the real story. Damn depressing tho.

Definitely. Most probably he'll be back, since this is not a sequel made by the original author.
Hollywood is good at twisting this kinda stories LOL laugh.gif
