Dark Angel

The Peter Jackson produced alien-thriller District 9 is taking a page from the True Blood viral marketing handbook with it's latest campaign touting "Everyone Deserves Equality". Much like the HBO series' Avl: American Vampire League, D9 has set up the site Mnu Spreads Lies to promote the film about an alien race forced to live in slums on earth, segregated from their human counterparts.
We've got a look at the new, third poster below (courtesy of IMPawards), and the unedited trailer after the jump.

District 9 was helmed by FX artist  Neill Blomkamp (Smallville, Dark Angel). For more, visit the immersive official site http://www.d-9.com/

Is it not enough that Jessica Alba has already played iconic comic book characters in “Fantastic Four” and “Sin City“? Apparently not, as rumors swirl today about her involvement with yet another paneled page property.
ICv2 is reporting that Alba has acquired the screen rights to a French comic book series titled “The Insiders.” The news originated from “various French language Websites,” which also pegs Alba’s “Sin City” director Robert Rodriguez as her partner in securing the comic’s film rights.

Insiders is a spy thriller in several volumes, reportedly revolving around the female lead Najah Cruz and I'm assuming that Alba has her eye on this vaguely Dark Angel-ish role as well as the Executive Producer's seat. In the series, Cruz is a Columbian working for the White House, tasked to infiltrate and bring down a global crime syndicate. Judging from the titles of the seven volumes of Insiders already issued, there's a whole lot of globetrotting going on: Chechnya, Afghanistan, the Kremlin, some Gulag or another, Peking. And I think that's in series order. The strip was created by Jean-Claude Bartoll, previously an investigative journalist and also the author of the Terrorist and Mekong comics,
