The Human Fly was a young man of unknown identity who was severely injured during a car crash. After a long hospitalization, including a number of reconstructive surgeries in which much of his skeleton was replaced by steel, he took on the masked identity of the Human Fly. As the Human Fly, he performed daredevil stunts to benefit various charities, especially those helping children with disabilities. His activities often drew him into conflict with criminals, who were often seeking to rob the charity events at which he performed. Additionally, he drew the attention of Spider-Man, who thought he might be the villain of the same name. The character was based on real-life stuntman Rick Rojatt.
According to the report, Goldmann will direct with Brewer and James Reach producing. Tony Babinski, Cirque Du Soleil’s in-house historian, wrote the Montreal-based screenplay.
WOW! This is kinda out of left field. If someone who have bet me money on the Human Fly getting a movie made before other Marvel characters, I would have taken that bet. However, the film ain't out yet. :)
