 THE
FOUNTAIN HC
Written by Darren Aronofsky
Adapted by Kent Williams
Art and cover by Williams
Darren Aronofsky
proved himself a filmmaker to watch with his provocative debut,
Pi. His follow-up, Requiem for a Dream, continued the accolades,
receiving Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations. His latest
accomplishment, however, comes straight to comics in the form of
The Fountain, a gorgeously painted, oversized original graphic novel
about the timeless truths of life, love and death.
Working with
acclaimed painter Kent Williams (Blood: A Tale, Destiny:
A Chronicle of Deaths Foretold), The Fountain crisscrosses
through three distinct time periods: in 1535, during an ancient
Mayan war; the present day, following one doctor’s desperate search
for the cure for cancer; and the far future, through the vast exotic
reaches of space. Interweaving these three periods, THE FOUNTAIN
follows Tomas — warrior, doctor, explorer — as he feverishly tries
to beat death and prolong the life of the woman he loves.
A story so
grand, one medium couldn’t contain it, Aronofsky is also shooting
a feature film version of the story for New Regency and Warner Bros.
Pictures starring Tony award- winning actor Hugh Jackman (The
Boy from Oz, X-Men, Van Helsing) and acclaimed
actress Rachel Weisz (Constantine, The Mummy,
The Constant Gardener). But before he did, the filmmaker
wanted The Fountain to be realized in the unique storytelling power
and artistic beauty of the graphic novel. Together, Aronofsky and
Williams deliver what might be considered the ultimate director’s
cut.
