At the Cannes Film Festival Barry Levine and Jerry Berger's Blatant Pictures announced a deal with Berger's Radical Publishing and Intandem Films, an international film finance and sales company that is raising a $100 million fund for the production of films based on properties from Radical Publishing's slate of comic books that will be formally announced at the San Diego Comic-Con.  Industry veteran Dave Elliott (Tundra, Penthouse) is the co-publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Radical's comic book line.

The first two projects resulting from the Intandem, Blatant/Radical partnership will be the $35 million Legends, which will be directed by Patrick Tatopoulous and based on the Radical Publishing comic created by Nick Percival; and the $25 million Medieval, a sort of 11th Century version of the Wild Bunch, based on the graphic novel written by Ian Edginton and illustrated by veteran comics pro John Bolton.

Other Radical Publishing properties are in development at other studios.  Rogue Pictures is working on Blood on the Tracks and Hercules, while Vin Diesel's Tigon Studios is adapting a trilogy of graphic novels that the Fast and Furious star created for publication by Radical.

At San Diego Radical Publishing also plans to introduce GallowWalker, a comic book property based on the forthcoming Intandem movie, which stars Wesley Snipes.
