William Gibson's Neuromancer has been optioned to be made into a movie several times. During the last ten years, Robert Longo, Chris Cunningham and now Joseph Kahn have been rumoured to direct the long-awaited movie.
Gibson himself has uttered skepticism about all speculations and said on his blog that he'll believe it when he sees the movie shot. This was in response to posters on his forum discussing the proposed Kahn adaptation (of which the image at the beginning of this post is supposed to be the film poster artwork).
So it certainly comes as a surprise that Production Weekly posted the following on Twitter, yet failed to elaborate on it or quote a source:
Liv Tyler in talks to star in Joseph Kahn's adaptation of "Neuromancer," based on the seminal novel by William Gibson.
As before, don't hold your breath on this one. You're better off re-reading the book, and learning more about Gibson and his fictional universe at the link below.
