Sony has acquired the Isaac Adamson novel "Tokyo Suckerpunch" to adapt into a feature Tobey Maguire will topline reports Variety.
The studio has hired famed scribe Ed Solomon ("Men in Black", "Charlie's Angels", "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure") to write the pic, to be produced by Maguire, Douglas Wick and Lucy Fisher.
The story follows Billy Chaka, a man writes a column that casts him as macho hero living in a surreal, amped-up Tokyo. When his book gets turned into a movie, Chaka flies to the city for the premiere and hates it enough to clash loudly with the director, who ends up murdered.
