As the blandest actor on Lost, and quite possibly on all of television, Matthew Fox doesn't strike me as a particularly strong superhero type. But apparently a Saturn Award for best TV actor gets you places, and Fox will be the latest actor to star in an adaptation of a minor graphic novel, Billy Smoke. Yeah, this one is so minor you haven't even heard of it-- it doesn't come out until next year.

Variety says the novel, written by B. Clay Moore and illustrated by Eric Kim, is about a hitman who decides to change his ways after a botched job nearly kills him. But he doesn't dedicate his life to raising puppies or feeding the homeless or anything-- this is a graphic novel, after all. He heads out to get rid of the world's assassins-- which, presumably, means being an assassin himself.

With this Wanted-esque plotline, Warner Bros. probably feel like they've struck gold. But am I wrong in my desire to see as little of Matthew Fox as possible? Can't we cast Locke in his own movie, or, better yet, Ben? I know they're going ahead with this and all, and maybe it will be good, but I feel like you need to have a better credit on your movie resume than Racer X before you get your own potential franchise.
