Production company Framelight has optioned rights to the cult comic "Chi-Chian" for development as a feature.
Set in a dystopian New York, where the city has lost its independence, becoming a 'prefecture' of Japan, an ordinary woman is selected to defend the city against samurais, robots and zombies.
The property was created by Cuban-American musician Aurelio Voltaire as a six-part comic book series that was spun-off into digital episodes for Syfy as well as a role-playing game.
Jeffrey Erb and Robert Robinson Jr. will produce "Chi-Chian" for Framelight...
