Vaughn, who collaborated with Millar on upcoming superhero film Kick-Ass, is eyeing the religious-themed comic as his next directing project. The story involves the return of Christ in the modern day, signalling a battle with the Antichrist to save humanity.
The comic started as a three-issue miniseries under the name Chosen in 2004. Millar later retitled the series American Jesus and plans to release a second instalment, The Resurrection, later this year.
The American Jesus movie is being targeted for a summer start date.
