Warner Brothers has reportedly acquired rights to "Hard Boiled", the Eisner Award-winning graphic novel by Frank Miller and Geof Darrow. Tom Hiddleston is rumored to play the lead role and reunite with "High-Rise" director Ben Wheatley.
"Hard Boiled" was first published in 1990. It follows insurance investigator Carl Seltz, who learns that he's actually a homicidal cyborg tax collector codenamed Nixon. He is informed by a fellow robot that he's the last hope for their race to escape their programmed slavery.
Tom Hiddleston will next be seen on the big screen in "Kong: Skull Island". The British actor will also reprise his role in Marvel Cinematic Universe as God of Mischief Loki. He will return at least for two more movies, "Thor: Ragnarok" and "Avengers: Infinity War".
