hottest<\/a> U.S. indies going today, Powerhouse is best known for its work on Netflix\u2019s adult-oriented action series, including Castlevania, Castlevania: Nocturne, Blood of Zeus, Masters of the Universe: Revelation, Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft, and Seis Manos.<\/p>\nWhite announced the project on his YouTube channel and shared a brief teaser featuring footage from the film.<\/p>\n
The story follows Aius, an 18-year-old farm boy raised in isolation by a father who regards his son\u2019s extraordinary power as a curse. After one night of rebellion costs him everything, Aius must decide whether the destructive force in his hands makes him a monster or the only person capable of bringing down the corporation that controls his world.<\/p>\n
In a release announcing the adaptation, White said:<\/p>\n
It\u2019s always been a dream of mine to make an animated movie, especially with a studio like Powerhouse, so I couldn\u2019t be more excited. We\u2019ve got an amazing team, and I can\u2019t wait for everyone to see what we\u2019re making.<\/p>\n
White, who has more than 25 million followers across his various channels, created Godslap with Jackson Clarke, Danny Palmer, and Matt Phillips. The comic launched in 2022 through the group\u2019s publishing company Bad Egg and has sold more than 100,000 copies worldwide.<\/p>\n
Dominguez added:<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve been longtime fans of Charlie, so getting the opportunity to bring his anime-inflected, hilariously violent comic Godslap to life was a dream come true. It\u2019s one of the funniest, most non-stop surprising, and thematically urgent comics to come out in the last decade, and a perfect story to adapt as an animated feature.<\/p>\n
Godslap is the latest creator-led genre property on Lyrical Animation\u2019s slate. The company is also developing an animated feature based on FromSoftware and Playstation\u2019s gothic action game Bloodborne. That project is being produced with Playstation Productions and Irish creator Se\u00e1n McLoughlin, better known online as Jacksepticeye, with Lyrical Media and Sony Pictures co-financing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hugely popular YouTuber and streamer Charlie \u201cMoistCr1TiKaL\u201d White\u2019s comic Godslap is being adapted into a 2d hand-drawn animated…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":616030,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[93,61,60,270],"class_list":["post-616029","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/616029","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=616029"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/616029\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/616030"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=616029"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=616029"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=616029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
