Remember that film adaptation of Brian K. Vaughn’s acclaimed comic series, “Y: The Last Man” that was supposed to happen? Well, the wheels are turning again — according to Deadline, New Line Cinema has appointed Dan Trachtenberg to direct the still in development Y: The Last Man film. Trachtenberg has primarily worked as a commercial director in the past, but his fan trailer for a hypothetical film adaptation of the Valve game Portal shows a director with an innovative eye. Here’s hoping this announcement heralds further progress in the project’s development soon… perhaps even a projected release date?
