A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night filmmaker Ana Lily Amirpour is writing and directing an adaptation of Joe Hill‘s darkly comedic horror comic Basketful of Heads.

Deadline reports that Bluestone Entertainment has secured the rights, enlisting Natasha Lyonne (“Poker Face,” “Orange Is the New Black”) to star.

Launched in 2017 from DC’s Hill House, the seven-issue series follows June Branch, who discovers that every bad guy she decapitates leaves a talking head behind. With every kill, June adds a new voice to her twisted Greek chorus — and another eight pounds of literal baggage.

Bluestone will finance the action horror comedy, with Akiva Goldsman and Greg Lessans producing for Weed Road alongside Director of Development Shiva Nassab, who brought the project to the company and will be overseeing.

Lyonne will produce for Animal Pictures, with Dannah Shinder executive producing and Max Ferguson overseeing. Richard Saperstein, Brooke Saperstein, and Annie Saperstein will produce for Bluestone Entertainment, with Beau Turpin executive producing.

Lyonne shared that she’s “thrilled to work with the ingenious auteur Ana Lily Amirpour on such beloved IP and so grateful that Akiva and Bluestone brought it to us at Animal to develop. This one’s gonna be a knockout!”

Amirpour added, “I’m very excited to team up with the wickedly funny and brilliant Natasha Lyonne to adapt this comic into a film. We’re going to bring to life a new type of antihero who gets pulled into a bizarre adventure that unleashes something inside her and turns her life inside out. It’s gonna be darkly funny, surreal and bloody as hell.”

Hill will publish his fifth novel, King Sorrow, October 21. Previous adaptations of his work include The Black Phone, “Locke & Key,” “NOS4A2,” In the Tall Grass, and Horns.
