Zoe Saldana Keeps it Serious in The Losers
Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on November 28, 2009
The fine Spanish-speaking folks at Omelete have unleashed the first official photos from director Sylvain White’s The Losers, a DC Comics adaptation about a team of sexy CIA black ops agents who are betrayed, then left for dead. Now they must band together and kick some ass on their way to finding those responsible for their attempted assassination. Written by Andy Diggle and illustrated, for the most part, by Jock, The Losers comic ran for 32 issues from August 2003 to March 2006. The idea was very loosely based on the original Losers for DC Comics, a group of World War II soldiers, although Andy Diggle maintains he has never read a single issue of the original series. He’s very Werner Herzog like that.
The image above shows Zoe Saldana (Star Trek, Avatar) sporting two guns and something slinky, whereas the image below shows the rest of the crew. From the left we have Saldana as Aisha, Chris Evans as Jensen, Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Clay, Columbus Short as Pooch, Idris Elba as Roque, and Óscar Jaenada as Cougar.
The Losers hits theaters April 9, 2010.
