Framelight has optioned the cult comic series Chi-Chian for an animated feature film.
Jeffrey Erb and Robert Robinson Jr. will produce the movie, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Created by musician Aurelio Voltaire (better known as goth sensation Voltaire), Chi-Chian was originally published as comic series by Sirius Entertainment. It has since inspired a series of digital episodes for Syfy and Syfy.com, as well as a role-playing game.
Set in a dystopian future where New York has become a prefecture of Japan, Chi-Chian is about a normal young woman who has been tapped as a heroine and must fight samurais, robots and zombies to protect her loved ones.
