The film is based on Jason Pearson's comic books, "Body Bags" and Kyle Ward has been hired to pen the script, reported a leading publication. 

The series was first published in 1996 by Dark Horse Comics.

Set in the fictional city of Terminus, Georgia, the story follows a father-daughter team of assassins-Mack Delgado (aka 'Clownface') and his overzealous teenage daughter, Panda, who constantly seeks her father's respect and permission to go out on jobs with him and his longtime body-bagging partner.
