Sony’s attending The Electric Church
Sony Pictures is revving itself into gear as they pick up the rights for the Jeff Somers novel entitled The Electric Church. This is the first of three books, all set in a near future where Earth is run by a federation of nations and governed by a council. Cates is a bodyguard-assassin who, in “Church,” is forced by the governing police force to kill the founder of a church that converts people by transplanting their brains into pliant robotic bodies, says Heat Vision Blog. Penning the script is Trevor Sands with no director set in at the moment.
Producing the picture is Jimmy Miller along with Gloria Fan and David Householter all underneath Mosaic Productions. Sands is still writing up for Warner Bros Pictures a big screen version of Hyperion.
