August 3, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Guardians of the Galaxy star Dave Bautista has taken to Twitter to reveal that he is attached to an adaptation of Valiant Entertainment’s comic book series Eternal Warrior.

Glad you asked cuz I'm really excited about EW. We are currently working to get the script fan worthy and then we'll be full on from there. https://t.co/aHO7DVPBVY

In response to Bautista’s tweet, Valiant CEO Dinish Shamdasani responded that: “I can neither confirm nor deny that @DaveBautista just revealed a giant secret lol!”

Gilad Anni-Padda, a.k.a. the Immortal Warrior, serves a protector of Earth, who has spent centuries protecting the planet from calamities and delivering justice to evildoers. The character is set to appear in Valiant’s upcoming live-action webseries Ninjak vs. The Valiant Universe, where he is portrayed by former WWE star John Morrison.
