Boilerplate to Become Graphic Novel
JJ Abrams will be making a new film based on the story "Boilerplate: History's Mechanical Marvel," written by Paul Guinan and Anina Bennett. Produced through his Bad Robot company, the graphic novel follows the world's first robot as it wanders through the 19th and 20th centuries. The idea to bring it to the screen was originally pitched on a website about 11 years ago and was apparently so convincing that some thought the robot was real.
