They are not going to option your work!” But the writer in me says; “stranger things have happened.” News recently broke that ‘Zombies vs. Gladiators’, an older Amazon Studios film project by Michael Weiss and Gregg Ostrin, has been green lit for development, and now the likes of Clive Barker are attached.
