My Pitch?
The idea behind this would essentially be the Idea that drew David Fincher into doing The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. An adult R-Rated focused trilogy. With a comic book character like the Question, it’s a perfect template. Taking a Character like Vic Sage and putting him in a film Like Fincher’s Se7en would be inherently compelling, dynamic, and different from other comic book films. So the idea that would drive this would be to do a low budget R-Rated Film Trilogy with a beginning, middle, and end that all act like standalone stories with an overarching story telling us about the life of Vic Sage. There’s no doubt that even just 5 years ago the concept would be too foreign a concept, but with films like Todd Phillip’s Joker I can’t help but think this is the time to do The Question as a film, as well as do it differently then the standard DC superhero fair, as an R-Rated Emotionally Dark and Mature Thriller. This is my overall concept of how to do The Question as a trilogy.
