LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Producer Robert Evans and comic-book icon Stan Lee are teaming up to bring a brand-new superhero to the big screen.

"Foreverman" will come complete with the trappings of Lee's other creations, such as Spider-Man and the Silver Surfer. The producers declined to divulge details other than to say the superhero will have all the problems of saving the world as well as the problems of dealing with everyday life.

"Hellboy" writer Peter Briggs has been hired to write the screenplay for Paramount Pictures in collaboration with Lee.

"We believe it to be truly a whole new franchise," said Gill Champion, president and CEO of Lee's POW! Entertainment. "In this world where people are looking for something different, Stan's idea was to create a concept not seen before to become an evergreen franchise for Paramount, and as Stan usually does, the franchise will come with various ancillary creations."
