Read moreEither you didn’t know a live-action Ben 10 film was happening, or forgot it was, but any which way it doesn’t matter, because it’s been canned, seemingly.Ah, Ben 10. You were a fine enough show that mostly survived on the strength of fun alien designs and the 10-year-old-boy power fantasy of being able to turn into a whole universe’s worth of aliens, but you’ve mostly been forgotten about since the 2016 reboot series. There are still plenty of fans of the original series around, but unfortunately for them, it seems like the series is staying asleep for a while longer. Back in 2011, it was reported that Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, and The Matrix producer Joel Silver would be handling a fully fledged, silver screen live-action film adaptation on the animated series, but 13 years later and it’s…
