Warner Bros to Make Homer's "The Odyssey" Movie, Set In Space!

Jason went to space and now Homer is going, no not Homer mpson.

Warner Bros has just hired James DiLapo (Devils At Play) to bring Homer's "The Odyssey" to the big screen. But instead of making a Greek epic, the new film will take place in space and in the future.

"The Odyssey" is Homer's follow-up to "The Illiad," which the studio turned into "Troy," which was directed by Wolfgang Petersen and starred Brad Pitt as Achilles. "The Odyssey" tracks the struggle of Odysseus to return from the Trojan War as men line up to marry his wife and live off his estate.

Producer Terry Dougas (Machete Kills) came up with the idea of setting the tale in space and had Pitt attached to the project at one point. The actor is no longer on board.
