Coming hot off the heels of the recent news that Seth Grahame-Smith's novel, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, is going to be adapted to the big screen comes the news that another Pride and Prejudice spin-off is in the works titled...wait for it...Pride and Predator!
Assuming this is more than just a rumor run rampant, the film would presumably be a period piece following an epic battle between the loving couple, Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet, and a totally awesome, bad ass, Predator ripping them a new one.
Of course, Fox owns the right to the Predator franchise and I personally can't see them boogeying down with this bad boy, but my fingers are crossed nonetheless.
Seeing as how all of Jane Austen's novels are in the public domain, I can only imagine what kind of nonsense others will try to get made into a film now that two possibly amazing adaptations are supposedly in the works. Got an idea? Have at it. One thing's for sure. It won't be any worse than the two wretched Alien Vs. Predator flicks.
