Colin Firth Set for Dorian Gray
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film is based on "The Picture of Dorian Gray," a book centering on a young man named Gray (Barnes) who becomes the subject of a painting. As the man descends into a hedonistic lifestyle, the portrait begins to age and morph, but he doesn't.
Firth will play Lord Henry Wotton, the aristocrat who corrupts Gray with his worldview. (He is sometimes called Harry in the novel.)
The movie began shooting this week.

Really? I shoulda known they have practically the same premise, you know, team of superpowered people, lots of superpowered people at that. Was Mina in the comics? She's my favorite character in that movie.

It's such a good story that it should make a good movie. Well, I hope at least. I didn't like Stuart Townsend as Dorian in Extraordinary Gentlemen, but the movie was ok.
