Plastic (Wo)Man (film)

Plastic Man is a planned Warner Bros. live-action feature film based on the DC Comics character of the same name, created by Jack Cole.

The movie has been in development for some time with Amanda Idoko (The Mayor) being tapped to write the script. In December of 2020, word leaked that newcomer Cat Vasko was redeveloping the script, with plans to reconfigure the story with a female lead.

The original comics combined humor and action, and told the adventures of Eel O'Brian, a burglar who gets exposed to strange chemicals. He finds he now has the ability to mould his body in to any form (like plastic) and uses his ability to aid law-enforcement.
