Clive Barker to team with John Woo on <i>Demonik</I> (15978)

Clive Barker is set to share his unique brand of horror with movie and video game audiences in the form of Demonik. The feature film has John Woo and Barker attached as producers. Barker has the option to write, having begun a treatment that is being shopped to studios by Woo's Tiger Hill Entertainment. The video game is already under way from Tiger Hill, game developer Terminal Reality, and game publisher Majesco, with the goal of shipping next year for next-generation consoles. "In this game, you'll not only be witness to the genesis of a new villain, but you can play him," Barker said. "I find that to be an extremely interesting way to create a new and compelling franchise." (John Gaudiosi, via Reuters)
