direct an adaptation of Lawrence Frank's novel _A Walk Among The
Tombstones_.*
Which comes as a bit of a surprise, considering Caruso is also signed
on to helm the movie version of comic book _Preacher_ – a hefty
project that should surely be draining all of his manpower.
_Tombstones_ follows two men who kidnap the women of drug dealers and
demand ransoms for their return.
Enter private investigator Scudder (a role a young Harrison Ford was
once interested in), who agrees to help a dealer when his wife is
killed by the kidnappers.
It’s a dark premise, but Frank’s tomes are filled with
vibrant characterisation and labyrinthine plot twists – exactly
the reasons Hollywood’s been tango-ing with an adaptation for
years.
According to _Deadline_, _Minority Report_ writer Scott Frank will
write the script, and will be going for an R-rated tone.
