Gyllenhaal’s production company Nine Stories will produce the film with Riva Marker and Kirkman via his shingle Skybound Entertainment. The comic was created by Robert Kirkman and Lorenzo De Felici, and it has been picked up by New Republic Pictures. Now, it's a matter of completing the creative trifecta by hiring an inspired director for the adaptation.Oscar nominated actor Jake Gyllenhaal ( Brokeback Mountain, Nightcrawler) has signed on to star in the big screen adaptation of the graphic novel Oblivion Song. Gyllenhaal is a great "get" for the lead and has shown his own strengths as a producer thus far. With Oblivion Song being so deeply-rooted in the sci-fi genre, it will need a sure-handed director to take the project to the next level. While the comic doesn't have quite the following that The Walking Dead had, Kirkman has shown that he's able to help bring his properties to life in a way that goes beyond the page. Kirkman is no stranger when it comes to swinging for the fences for big, new projects, and Oblivion Song feels like his next big venture. His next release is the Antoine Fuqua directed The Guilty, which is set to debut on Netflix on October 1st, 2021.
