Zac Efron is on Fire

Unfortunately for those of you who really do wish that the 17 Again star was literally on fire, your wrong. What is true is the fact that he is attached to star in the spy thriller entitled Fire, just recently acquired from Universal Pictures, reports Heat Vision Blog.

Once again another comic book is being sprawled out onto the big screen, originally published by Image Comics as a mini-series that centers on a young Jewish-American man named Benjamin “Ben” Furst, who is initially introduced as a college student studying political science. After passing several tests, including a fake mugging, he is recruited by a beautiful young woman named D. D. into the Central Intelligence Agency and told that he is going to be the first agent of Project Fire (hence the title of the comic), an experiment to test whether training agents out of ordinary citizens can be successful.

A majority of the comic book adaptations have been picked up that originally got published within this past decade, but this short lived series was thrown out there all the way back in 1993 created by Brian Michael Bendis. Bendis will be set to write up the adaptation with Neal Moritz and David Engel of Circle of Confusion producing.
