Merrick here...

Davis Entertainment has acquired the rights to NORTH WIND, a comic book series from Boom Studios.

The story takes place in a futuristic Los Angeles, years after global warming has created a new ice age. Most survivors live under the ice and are ruled by a dictator who exiles some citizens to the harsh environment outdoors. His cruel actions cause one of the exiles to lead a revolution.

David DiGilio will script and Executive Produce. DiGilio recently wrote Frank Marshall's EIGHT BELOW - the thing with Paul Walker and the dogs (the distinction here is hazy).

As a production company, David Entertainment's credits include the two AVP movies, THE FLIGHT OF THE PHOENIX remake, I, ROBOT, BEHIND ENEMY LINES, and a whole lot more.

First DOOMSDAY and now this. I for one welcome the return of 80s-throwback post-apocalyptic wasteland antics.
