In the comic , which began in 2004 andran for 50 issue , Hundred was the human race ’s first and only superhero who has the power to communicate and manipulate machines . However , instead of put the emphasis on him being a superhero , the comic focused mainly on Hundred ’s political challenge and exploits , which include becoming the Mayor of New York City post-9/11 . The film will reportedly split the difference and “ revolve around Hundred dealing with a threatened political life history when the source of his powers return to lay claim its debt . ”

They write biopic Race , about Jesse Owens ; postwar play The Aftermath , starring Keira Knightley ; political thriller Seberg , with Kristen Stewart in the title office ; and have reportedly contributed to projects such as Captain Marvel , Edge of Tomorrow 2 , and Snake Eyes .
