Garth Ennis, Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti's 'The Pro' Animation
Prostitution has been explored pretty thoroughly in Hollywood, but I'm not sure anything's approached the superpowered depravity of an animated version of "The Pro." Based on Garth Ennis, Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti and Paul Mounts' 2002 one-shot from Image Comics, the animated trailer serves as something of a summary of the hooker heroine's adventures in a world of superhero parody.
There's been talk of a live action version of "The Pro" before (with creators calling for actresses such as Sarah Silverman and Ellen Muth for the leading role) along with a supposed movie "demo," but this past week's post by Palmiotti on YouTube marks the first time this particular animation's been made widely viewable.
Watch the animated short film HERE.
