The Goon is a creator-owned comic by Eric Powell that is currently published by Dark Horse Comics. For the last few years, director David Fincher (Seven, Fight Club, The Social Network) has been shopping around a CG film version of The Goon with little success.
Clancy Brown and Paul Giamatti are on board to voice The Goon and his sidekick Frankie and Blur Studios is providing the wonderful CG animation for the film. Blur Studios has recently done some off-time work on a Public Service Announcement featuring The Goon. While it’s still in the rough stages, it’s still a good indicator of what you can expect from the film – if it ever gets studio financing.
Take a look!
At the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con, Fincher and Blur Studios gave us a look at a more polished teaser trailer. If you haven’t seen that one yet, here’s your chance! You would thing that between this trailer and the fact that respected director David Fincher is pushing to get this made, someone would finance this film? Hopefully one day!
