The premise behind this week's I Am Number Four is that nine teenagers escaped their home planet of Lorien to live on Earth among us. With the first three dead, Four, as we might call him, is the focus of the first part of the story -- derived from an in-progress series of books -- as he begins to realize he needs to find the others like him, all who have powers such as telekinesis or controlling fire, called legacies. D.J. Caruso (who also directed Eagle Eye and Disturbia) revealed what it was like to adapt the first of the series, and whether that meant a franchise was in his (or Four's) future.

Shia LaBeouf, in a recent interview with Wizard magazine, expressed his doubts of him starring in Y: The Last Man . LaBeouf has been linked to the the project for a while. However with production insight, director DJ Caruso and writer Carl Ellsworth are ready to bring the comic book tale by Brian K. Vaughn to life.
The story is basically about Yorick, a young guy escape artists who finds that he's the last man alive on Earth after a plague kills every male, and every male animal, on the planet except for Yorick and his pet monkey Ampersand. He soon becomes a target pretty much everyone he goes.
LaBeouf looked like a perfect actor to play Yorick role, but now states, "You take Sam Witwicky, and you put a monkey on his shoulder. I don't know if it's that big a differential. It seems like he's the ordinary guy in an extraordinary situation again.
He added, "I'm not willing to make that movie currently, and may be too old to play the role by the time it does come around."
