Hope Larson Releases New Short Film; Recruits Comics Creators For The Poster

Graphic Novelist Hope Larson, who was recently nominated for an Eisner for her 2012 adaptation of Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time, has made the leap to moving pictures. Her new eight-and-a-half-minute short film Bitter Orange, starring Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World's Brie Larson and The Venture Bros.' James Urbaniak, is now available to watch on Vimeo.

You can watch the 1920s-set film, which was storyboarded by Koko Be Good writer/artist Jen Wang, as well as check out the poster by Becky Cloonan and Dustin Harbin, after the jump!

Hope Larson told Badass Digest that the film was shot over two weekends, with some later shooting for the car scene done a few weeks later. She's already got her second directorial project in the can, too: A music video for Got a Girl, a music project from Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World's Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Dan "the Automator" Nakamura.
