Y: The Last Man

Y: The Last Man (2009)



Another comic created by Brian K Vaughn is heading to the big screen. D.J. Caruso (Eagle Eye & Disturbia) will be helming the project with a rumor that Shia LaBeouf will star as Yorick. If the first film does well there might be a trilogy. The comic's storyline has a feel similar to Children of Men meets Omega Man.



"Yorick Brown, a young amateur escape artist, and his Capuchin monkey, Ampersand, the last two men on Earth. Something (speculated to be a plague) simultaneously kills every mammal possessing a Y chromosome - including embryos, fertilized eggs, and even sperm. Society is plunged into chaos as infrastructures collapse and the surviving women everywhere try to cope with the loss of the men. Yorick goes on a mission to find his girlfriend Beth, who was on vacation in Australia."
