Warner Bros. has plans for a film adaptation of Jeff Smith's comic Bones with Patrick Sean Smith, creator of "Greek", hired as the film's writer. Along with getting a writer today, Warner Bros. will also be bringing P.J. Hogan (Peter Pan, My Best Friend's Wedding) onto the project as the director.
Bones was published between 1991 and 2004 and follows three cousins from the Bone family where they are each separated from their hometown and each other. They eventually find themselves in a valley full of mystery and danger and are hunted. The three family members are then taken in by a girl, Thorn, and her grandmother, Gran'Ma Ben, where they are all reunited. They then discover that the valley is being threatened by an evil force called Lord of the Locusts.
Animation studio, Animal Logic, who has worked on The Lord of the Rings and Legends of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole will be working on "Bones".
