Vince Vaughn & Owen Wilson to Team Up in Boom! Comics 2 Guns?

It’s been awhile since we've heard anything about the 2 Guns project over at Universal. Based on the Boom! comics of the same name, the last it was rumored that Blake Masters was writing the project.

Now, Vince Vaughn has signed on to star in Universal’s buddy-cop action film and may re-team with his Wedding Crashers’ co-star Owen Wilson, who is eying the project as well, according to Pajiba.

The comic was written by Steven Grant with art by Mat Santolouco. This follows a DEA agent and an undercover Naval Intelligence officer who are unwittingly investigating each other and who steal mob money for the good guys. They realize later that the mob actually got them to steal $50 million from the CIA.

The project is pegged to be a throwback to the ’80s buddy cop movies in the realm of Lethal Weapon and 48 Hours but with a modern spin.

No director has signed on yet. No production date has been set.

Love Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson together. Match made in heaven.

Stan Lee and Mark Waid's 'The Traveler' gets a Trailer

Written by Waid with art by Amazing Spider-Man artist Chad Hardin, The Traveler deals with a time-jumper who tangles with a crew of super powered assassins from the future known as the Split-Second Men. The hero doesn’t play by the standard rules of time-travel stories, Waid said.

“This guy doesn’t care whether he messes with history or not,” he said. “As a matter of fact, this is the kind of guy who, if he were standing in Dealey Plaza in 1963, he wouldn’t let Kennedy be killed…. What you see is what are the repercussions if you’re willing to actually tamper in time.”

“We should have called it The Tamperer,” Lee interjected, laughing.

The Traveler release in November, and BOOM! Studios wants to entice you once again to pick up the series from Mark Waid and Chad Hardin. (via: Major Spoilers)
