According to the Vancouver Sun, Stan Lee struck a deal with Rainmaker Animation, based in Vancouver, to create what they hope to be a CG series of movies based around Lee's 'Legion of 5'. The deal is estimated around $24 million, and would require Rainmaker to make at least one feature-length film of 'Legion'.

Franklin would not give specifics on the Legion of 5 concept, which is still in development at Lee's POW! Entertainment, other than to say it will involve five superhero characters with extraordinary powers. He also doesn't know at this stage if the first film will be made for theatrical or straight-to-DVD release.

Although Stan Lee's POW! Entertainment has a first look deal with Disney, Rainmaker's CEO says their deal is unaffected by it.
