Director Dean Parisot has a little bit of time on his hands right now, since his planned comedy with Ed Helms Central Intelligence has been delayed thanks to Helms being one of the most popular actors out there. But Parisot, whose credits include comedies like Home Fries and Fun With Dick And Jane, isn't just using the free time to make the same old same old-- he's changing pace entirely with a graphic novel adaptation.

The Los Angeles Times reports that Parisot plans to adapt M. Zachary Sherman's graphic novel SOCOM: SEAL Team Seven, which isn't about your usual superheroes or creatures. The Times describes Parisot's adaptation, called simply SEAL, as "a political action film that mixes the Tom Clancy submarine thriller with a dollop of fanboy fantasy intrigue." The novel follows a Navy SEAL team investigating a sunken submarine in the Persian Gulf that also, somehow, involves Atlantis. OK, so maybe there are a few supernatural creatures involved.
