Ron Howard on The Strange Adventures of H.P. Lovecraft

We have known for a while that Ron Howard’s first comic book adaptation will be a film version of the Image Comics series, The Strange Adventures of H.P. Lovecraft.

The story of a comic book character, featuring a young Lovecraft who goes from a little writer to an action packed hard man of the supernatural.

Howard told LA Times, “Look, it’s challenging, but if we get it right, it could be really original, and psychologically interesting and scary in a great way. The comic book follows a young H.P. Lovecraft as an ancient curse transforms his darkest nightmares into reality. I’ve never heard of this comic book series but this sounds pretty cool to me.
