Fast and Furious 5 director Justin Lin has been hired by the studio to develop the project for the big screen, Bleeding Cool reports.
Leading Man was created by B Clay Moore and Jeremy Haun, and published by Oni Press. The story follows a top Hollywood actor who doubles as the world's greatest secret agent.
Oni Press's solicitation for the title reads: "There's more to the world's hottest actor than sexy starlets, tabloid gossip and primo parts because Nick Walker isn't just a Hollywood hunk, he's also a superspy.
"When a routine investigation off the coast of France turns up a terrorist training facility, Nick must juggle espionage and screen time in this explosive and astonishing adventure."
A potential release window for The Leading Man is yet to be announced.
