Plunder (film)

Plunder is a planned live-action feature film based on the Archaia Comics/Boom! Studios comic series of the same name created by Jonathan "Swifty" Lang.

Producers Miles Koules and Oren Koulest have optioned the film rights for development under their Koulest Productions banner. Ethan Teller (Jar of Fools) is writing the script. Alec Gillis (Prey) is attached to oversee visual effects via his Studio Gillis.

The solicitation copy for the 2015 comic reads, "After facing off with an illegal Chinese vessel, a gang of Somali pirates tries to board what they think is a research vessel, only to find themselves in the midst of a massacre. As their worst nightmares become reality, the 14-year-old boy who went from translator to reluctant pirate not only becomes the key to survival, but must decide for himself how far he is willing to go in the name of self-preservation."
