Jessica Alba & Robert Rodriguez Secure ‘The Insiders’ Film Rights?

EUM200906110102100041According to MTV, Jessica Alba and Robert Rodriguez have secured the film rights to a French comic book series titled “The Insiders.” Where did this news originate from? Reportedly several French websites are covering the story.

“The Insiders” first debuted in 2002 from Jean-Claude Bartoll and Renaud Garreta, yielding seven volumes of the series in France with an eighth scheduled for this October. In the same month, Americans will also see the first volume of “The Insiders” titled Chechen Guerilla — perhaps a move to familiarize stateside audiences with Alba’s upcoming character.

So, who would Jessica Alba play? Najah Cruz, a Columbian woman with “the weapons expertise and combat skills of a James Bond.” The character is “tasked with infiltrating a crime syndicate on behalf of the United States government, where she ultimately works her way into becoming the lead criminal’s body guard.”

What do you think? Can you see Jessica playing this character?
