The film is based on the comic book series created by Alex Raymond in 1934 that follows a polo player who is kidnapped and taken to space by Dr. Zarkov to the planet Mongo to defeat Ming the Merciless. The classic property was made into a popular serial series starring Buster Crabbe in the 1950’s, and was brought to the screen in 1980 starring Sam Jones.
Vaughn has successfully adapted a number of hit comic-book properties, including Kick-Ass, X-Men: First Class and Kingsman: The Secret Service. He is set to direct the upcoming biopic Eddie The Eagle at Fox.
