While we wait for The Resident and The Losers to be released, here’s some news on The Losers from the writer and illustrator of the graphic novel. They did spill a couple of interesting details about what we can expect to see in the movie:
Apparently during casting, the writer was concerned that Zoe Saldana was too pretty and frail looking to play Aisha. However any fears were allayed when shown footage of a brutal knock down, drag out fight between Saldana and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
We also got confirmation on some of the changes in the film adaptation The Losers – besides the obvious change in ethnicity in Idris Elba’s character Roque, the filmmakers have also changed the origins of Saldana’s Aisha from Afghanistan to South American, however in a strange coincidence, the character was originally set to come from Bolivia until DC/Vertigo asked for it to be changed, everything comes full circle it seems.
