Edwin Mejia and his producing partner Vlad Yudin are getting ready to go graphic…

The Dominican-American film producer and Yudin—co-founders of The Vladar Company, a media and entertainment company that produces film and television content—have signed on to produce a feature version of Arcana Comics‘ upcoming graphic novel Head Smash.

Mejia and Yudin will write and develop the film adaptation of the comic, which is being penned by Erik Hendrix and illustrated by Dwayne Harris. The sci-fi thriller, set in the city of Ares, centers on an orphan named Smash who finds a safe haven with a brutal syndicate.

Mejia and Yudin previously produced the documentary Big Pun: The Legacy, about the late rapper Christopher Lee Rios, and the drama-comedy Last Day of Summer, starring DJ Qualls and actress Nikki Reed.
