Variety says that Morgan Freeman is in talks to star opposite Bruce Willis in Summit Entertainment's espionage thriller Red, based on the WildStorm/DC Comics title.

Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Mark Vahradian are producing with DC executive Gregory Noveck serving as executive producer. Brothers Erich Hoeber and Jon Hoeber are writing the script.

"Red" was originally written by Warren Ellis and illustrated by Cully Hamner. The three-book series, published in 2003 and 2004, tells the story of a former black-ops CIA agent now living a quiet life in retirement until the day a high-tech assassin shows up intent on killing him

Warren Ellis wrote the original series, so this should be promising.
Even though Wildstorm published this, they are going with the DC logo on screen. Does it go to show how swallowed up that former company is?
