The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen to get Hollywood reboot

It seems as though Hollywood flop The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was not quite extraordinary enough, with news emerging that a reboot is in the works.

The original was released just 12 years ago, with a cast including Sean Connery and Jason Flemyng failing to cause a splash. But now Fox have decided the time has come to freshen things up. Some are looking forward to a misunderstood classic getting another chance on the big screen, however others are far from convinced. After all, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, featuring characters such as Dorian Gray and Mina Harker, is nothing like TV show Penny Dreadful, which features Mina Harker and Dorian Gray. https://twitter.com/EnglishmanSDCC/status/603477374378909696 H/T Empire
