AFFLECK & DAMON are producing adaptation of BRUBAKER & PHILLIPS’ ‘SLEEPER.’

Power Bro Couples working within Power Bro Couples. Wheels within wheels. Affleck and Damon producing an adaptation of comic book bro couple Brubaker and Phillip’s Sleeper. This is wonderful.

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are on board to produce a film adaptation of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips‘ comic book series “Sleeper” for Warner Bros., as reported Thursday evening by Variety.

“The Shield” creator Shawn Ryan and David Wiener (who’s written for “The Killing” and Ryan’s “Last Resort”) are set to write; Jennifer Todd, president of Affleck and Damon’s production company Pearl Street Films, is also producing. No directors or actors are currently attached to the project.

The “Sleeper” news furthers Affleck’s relationship with DC Comics-owned characters, as the actor is set to play Batman in 2015’s “Man of Steel” sequel.
