We had reported well over one year ago that Paramount was adapting Kyle Starks’ graphic novel Kill Them All, a violent tale that pays tribute to action movies from the 1990s.
“Kill Them All tells of a betrayed murderess on a revenge streak and a hard-drinking former cop who, to get what they want, team to take down a crime lord. The latter is atop a 15-story Miami high-rise so the duo go floor by floor cutting through assassins, murderers, Luchadore gang bosses, ex-boyfriends, and office workers.”
Today we’ve learned via THR that Victoria Mahoney, who was second-unit director on Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, is in talks to direct the film adaptation for Paramount.
Mahoney directed the feature film Yelling to the Sky back in 2011, and she’s subsequently directed episodes of “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Power” and the upcoming “Lovecraft Country.”
Writer James Coyne will adapt the graphic novel for the screen.
Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec are producing.
