Editing Blake and Mortimer (section)

===Film===
Several prior attempts were made to adapt ''The Yellow M'' to film. Spanish director [[Álex de la Iglesia]] stated that he was working on an adaptation of the comic to be released around 2010, however this never came into fruition. At one point, surrounding rumours claimed that [[Hugh Laurie]] and [[Kiefer Sutherland]] were to play Blake and Mortimer respectively;<ref>Álex de la Iglesia is interviewed in "Noches como ésta" {{cite web |url=http://pluton.rtve.es/alex-de-la-iglesia-entrevistado-en-en-noches-como-esta.html |title=Breve reflexión en un momento de tregua |publisher=El Blog De Álex De La Iglesia |date=10 October 2008 |access-date=2008-10-11 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081013045030/http://pluton.rtve.es/alex-de-la-iglesia-entrevistado-en-en-noches-como-esta.html |archive-date=13 October 2008 }}</ref> Since then, however, nothing has come of this project.
