We’ve seen a lot of movies about evil geniuses lately and now DreamWorks has acquired the movie rights to Maintenance a comic book about two janitors and the mad scientists they clean up after. Johnny and Manny work for TerroMax, an evil think tank, and they deal with the aftermath of experiments gone bad. Maintenance is an ongoing series published Oni Press, which also published the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels. Warner Brothers owned the movie rights before they sold them to DreamWorks and currently no one is attached to the project. Read more at: Collider[1] and The Hollywood Reporter[2]
