Synopsis
Diagnosed with terminal cancer, Alan Gates is resigned to die, until he learns that his tumor is really a parasite. With a new lease on life and incredible, otherworldly powers, Alan must fight against an evil army buried beneath society's skin, all the while unlocking the secrets of his forgotten past.[1]
Film adaptation
In June 2014, 20th Century Fox acquired the rights to the comic and set James Wan to direct and produce the adaptation.[2] In 2016, Brad Peyton signed on to direct the film with Wan still producing the film through his Atomic Monster banner.[3] One year later, Rebecca Thomas replaced Peyton as director.[4]
