Waititi said, "The films and graphic novels of Alejandro Jodorowsky have influenced me and so many others for so long. I was stunned to be given the opportunity to bring his iconic characters to life."Created by filmmaker and writer Jodorowsky and French artist Moebius at the end of the 70s, `The Incal` has a devoted readership, having become the highest-selling science fiction graphic novel in history. 
 
The graphic novel is the foundation of the 'Jodoverse', which encompasses bestselling comic book series such as 'The Metabarons'&nbsp;and 'Megalex'. 
 
It centred on a private investigator John Difool, who happens upon a mystical artefact known as the Incal, an object of great power coveted by many factions across the galaxy. As Difool learns of the Incal`s powers and purpose, he teams with a ragtag crew on a mission to save the universe.

"It began as the adventures of a jackass named John Difool, and then it became something else, we called it `The Incal`, something that has transformed everything it`s ever touched and continues to do so: its creators, the other artists who later became a part of John`s journey, its publisher Humanoids and myself in the process, countless readers, writers and directors around the world, and soon, I believe, the great Taika Waititi himself and everyone who looks to him for inspiration," said Humanoids CEO Fabrice Giger. 
 
Jodorowsky said that Giger introduced him to Waititi`s work, which convinced him that he`d found the right filmmaker. "I fully trust Taika`s creativity to give `The Incal` a stunning take, intimate and at the same time of cosmic proportions," he said. 
 
As per Variety, Humanoids is producing the project with Primer Entertainment, a company led by David Jourdan that acquired a stake in the publishing house in 2019. Waititi won an Oscar for his screenplay for `JoJo Rabbit` and also directed `Hunt for the Wilderpeople`.
