David Goyer, whose trailer for The Unborn blew the minds of fanboys at Comic-Con with its twisted nightmarish imagery, is now working on an updated version of H.G. Wells' novel and 1933 Film The Invisible Man.

Goyer states, "I'm writing it right now... I got Universal to hire some conceptual artists for me so they're working tandem with me writing. The main guy is Jamie Rama, Aaron Sims did some pieces too. Rama is a great conceptual artist who worked on Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, he's one of the primary conceptual artists who worked on the Bat suits."

The story picks up from where the novel left off with Scotland Yard's William Melville, who would later found MI6.

"He instituted fingerprinting and was friends with Harry Houdini. He's were the 'M' comes from in MI6. In my story, he's the one who captures the Invisible Man in my story and says, 'Listen, we want to turn you into a secret agent and send you into Imperial Russia.'"]

"I went back to Universal and I asked them if they were doing anything with the character. They said 'no' so I told them I had this take," he says. "Universal gets it's meant to be like what Steven Sommers did with The Mummy. It's a big world. Very steampunk. They're doing the The Wolfman and trying to do the Creature from the Black Lagoon, they're really interested in this. The good news is Rogue is also Universal, and Rogue is really happy with The Unborn , so I think I have to really f**k up the script for them to not want to make it."
