'THE SADHU' INDIAN EPIC FROM
 '300' PRODUCER MARK CANTON
And while Greek epic 300 RISE OF AN EMPIRE is scoring millions around the globe, its producer Mark Canton (who also brought us IMMORTALS blockbuster epic) already has another epic adventure in his sleeve! He will develop a movie out of Indian comic book THE SADHU! The story follows James Jenson, a British soldier whose family is brutally murdered by a corrupt superior officer in the Indian colony of Bengal in 1858. Jenson escapes in the remote forests of India, where he seeks refuge with the mysterious Indian mystics known as sadhus. After years of being trained in their supernatural arts, Jenson must decide whether to use his newfound powers for inner peace and enlightenment, or vengeance. Using the ancient mythology of India the producers are hoping to launch a new movie franchise.
