  • Shia LaBeouf as Y: The Last Man -- Not a Question of "Will?" but "When?"

    Shia LeBeoufLast time Shia LaBeouf spoke about comic adaptation Y: The Last Man, it seemed he was not interested in the project, saying the character of Yorick in Y was a little too similar to his character of Sam in Transformers.

    The character similarity is still an issue for LaBeouf, but that doesn't mean the movie won't happen, especially since Y is his "favorite comic book." LaBeouf told Collider that the movie is just on hold for a little while.

    We DO want to make it. [Brian K.] Vaughn and [Carl] Ellsworth and D.J. [Caruso] are writing the script now. The script is not ready to be shot. DJ is making a different movie right now. He's making Jack and the Beanstalk. There's just other things going on with DJ and I wouldn't want to make the movie with anybody else because he loves it like I do. But I don't think Vaughn is trying to give it to anybody else. I think that it is something that's very realistic, it's just not in the pipe for the next year.

    If not next year, when? LaBeouf is already set to make the Wall Street sequel Money Never Sleeps and a fifth Indiana Jones.

  • LaBeouf Is Currently "Not Willing to Make" Y: The Last Man

    Director D.J. Caruso's big screen adaptation of the critically-acclaimed graphic novel series Y: The Last Man seemed like the perfect vehicle for rising star Shia LaBeouf, especially since the two had already worked together on Eagle Eye and Disturbia. However, LaBeouf, rumored to have been offered the role of title character Yorick Brown, recently told Wizard magazine that the role is too similar to his Transformers character, Sam Witwicky:

    You take Sam and you put a monkey on his shoulder. I don't know if it's that big a differential. It seems like he's the ordinary guy in an extraordinary situation again.

    The "monkey" LaBeouf refers to is Ampersand, Yorick Brown's pet Capuchin monkey. In Y: The Last Man, Yorick and Ampersand are the only two mammals possessing a Y chromosome to survive a mysterious plague that sweeps the planet.

    It's unclear why the film adaptation, originally scheduled to begin filming in the fall of 2008, has been delayed, but LaBeouf said:

    I'm not willing to make that movie currently and may be too old to play the role by the time it does come around.

    LaBeouf's next film, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, opens nationwide June 24.

  • Y: The Last Man Having Script Trouble

    Y: The Last ManIt's been awhile since there's been much to report about the big screen adaptation of Brian K. Vaughn's hit comic about an apocalyptic plague that kills all but one male, until director D. J. Caruso (Eagle Eye, Disturbia) finally told to ComingSoon what's been keeping the movie from getting off the ground.

    "I think it's one of those that the source material is fantastic stuff, it's great, but it's a tough one to lick into getting into a screenplay," said Caruso, who has been working with screenwriters Carl Ellsworth and David Goyer as well as Vaughn on the project for a few years now to create a trilogy of Y movies, "When you're telling the story -- yes, the fanboys and all the people who love it will go and see it -- but if you're just seeing the movie from a filmgoers' perspective and you're not familiar with the source material, you have to make sure you make the movie that they understand and they love, too. And we're almost there."

    Caruso has a familiar choice in mind to play Yorick, the last man on earth: Shia LaBeouf. After making two movies together, Caruso clearly is a fan of LaBeouf. "I would like him to do it if our schedules work out," Caruso told SciFi Wire that LaBeouf is interested, and will be shown the script once LaBeouf is done taking time off after finishing Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
