Hayden “Darth Vader” Christensen is being courted to star in the big screen adaptation of William Gibson's 1984 cyberpunk novel Neuromancer.
The flick is said to be as a $70 million independent production that would find Christensen cast as Case, “a talented hacker whose poisoned nervous system reduces him to hustling Japan's dystopian streets before he gets the offer of his lifetime.”
Presumably to romance neuros.
Along with Blade Runner, Neuromancer is often heralded for exploring topics like of artificial intelligence, cyberspace, virtual reality and technology overkill way before these subjects became an part of modern culture.
Sadly, Torque director Joseph Kahn will helm the otherwise cool sounding project.
