The Sunday Guardian
|February 22, 2026
In a significant development for fantasy storytelling on screen, Academy Award-winning actor Viola Davis is set to produce a feature adaptation of the Afro-fantasy graphic novel The Untamed: A Sinner’s Prayer, bringing the independent franchise to cinema audiences.
The project is being developed by Davis and her husband Julius Tennon under their company JuVee Productions, in collaboration with Homeworld Entertainment and Stranger Comics, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The film will be based on the revenge-fantasy series created by Sebastian A. Jones, who is attached to outline the screenplay and direct. Producing alongside Davis and Tennon are Simon Swart, Andrew Cosby and Jones himself. The adaptation marks an ambitious step in bringing Afrocentric fantasy narratives into mainstream cinema, a genre space historically dominated by European mythological influences.
