Jeff Smith’s ‘Bone’ Comic Being Made into Movies
Jeff Smith’s Bone comic books are in the process of being turned into animated feature films.
Comic Book Resources has a big report from Smith’s appearance last weekend at the Alternative Press Expo (APE) where a question was asked about the status of the film. CBR reports:
Smith mentioned the deal he signed with Warner Bros. for a CGI cartoon, noting he was very happy with the progress so far. No release date has been set yet, but he said they’ll probably end up making three films. [Discussion moderator Larry] Marder asked if it was a big decision to do a computer-generated cartoon instead of a hand drawn one. Smith noted he was a huge fan of hand-drawn animation, and had even tried to pull together a “Bone” cartoon with some friends he has in the animation business. “It was just too big, too expensive,” he said. “I ended up just spending my time trying to get everyone to get along with everyone else.”
I’ve never actually read these comics, but I’ve always seen them and thought they looked fun and interesting. This seems like a perfect comic to make into a movie. It has that instant appeal that sets it apart from many other animated films out there, hopefully they will do a good job with it.
