Dynamite Entertainment and Mike The Pike Productions’ Arowana Media Holdings have announced they’re making  a Vampirella feature film, based on the character created by Forrest J. Ackerman and Trina Robbins.

According to the Arrow in the Head site, a deal has also been closed for “the TV rights to characters and stories within the Vampirella Universe”.

Producer Mark Newbauer said, “We are thrilled with the opportunity to bring this amazing character to screen in a big way. Nick Barucci, founder and CEO of the prolific Dynamite Comics, is an incredible visionary with an eye for story, and a talent for integration into the zeitgeist. [Barucci] and everyone at Dynamite have resurrected this character in a significant way over the past decade. We are truly grateful for the faith and support of Dynamite, Nick, and their reps, including producer/manager Ford Gilmore of Illuminati Entertainment.”

The previous Vampirella movie starred Licence to Kill’s Talisa Soto as the title character.
