Kevin Munroe will write and direct a movie adaptation of Dark Horse comic El Zombo Fantasma.
The story involves a murdered Mexican wrestler returning from the dead to act as guardian to a difficult Los Angeles teen, The Hollywood Reporter says.
Chris Patton, Robert Sanchez, Jose Martinez and Latino Review movie website owner Kellvin Chavez will produce the project, described as a "Latino Hellboy".
"It furthers our goal of bringing Latino themes and Latino talent to the commercial market," said Martinez. "We plan to blow this out in a big way."
Director Munroe's last movie was TMNT. He is currently preparing to shoot Dead Of Night with Brandon Routh.
