Dan Who?

I’d never heard about Dan Dare until today, and you best believe that now that Sam Worthington is
attached to a movie about D2 I’m hitting the Google.

Hard.

OK, so he’s not a guy per se, but a comic-book character…. The blockbusting actor is in talks to star in a big-budget movie version of the English sci-fi character.

Dare was hugely popular in Britain in the 1950s, appearing each week in the Eagle comic. Together with his sidekick Digby, Dare would fight the evil Mekon week after week in its pages.

Evidently, Dare is quite the cult fave, so it’ll be interesting to learn more about ’im now that Worthington will bring him to handsome life.
