Movie or mini-series for Amtrak Wars

Two things here:
1) Does anyone know what has happened to the movie version of Coud Warrior that was being developed by an Australian firm. I think there rights to the project were supposed to expire last year?
2) Who would you like to see play the main characters in an amtrak-wars movie or mini-series? The Dark Visions illustrated guide had great depictions of the characters - who do you think looks similar enough and could pull off the role?

Looks like Fresh Films no longer have the rights. Bold VFX have recently acquired them.

Thats interesting, another Aus based company. Is this the same people in another business or a completely different outfit?

Bold VFX has absolutely no affiliation with Fresh Films what so ever. Keep your eyes on www.thetalismanprophecy.com
its still VERY BASIC but will be growing from now on...

Whoa.. Great news! Lets hope this new site is updated quickly and often. Fantastic to hear there is some action on this front, I can't wait to see what is next.

I know for sure that Bold VFX has not acquired the rights. I have heard however that several high-profile and established concept artists are working on developing a look and feel for the projects and that they are planning a MMOG too.

According to this source Bold VFX (or at least their "VFX Supervisor") is currently working on the films:
