It is just a rumour yet.
Information is not confirmed so far.
But I would love Frank Darabont as director.
He would be able to add real emotions to this movie.

Green Mile and Shawshank Redemption... Pretty awesome pedigree. Downside that was more than 20 years ago. I would hope this guy knows what he's doing, but approaches it like he would anything else and is not so out of touch with Comic Book movies are now, he doesnt give us something like Shumakers Batman's. Directors and writers like this tend to look down on the genre typically calling it "mindless". I just hope this isn't his approach and thinks anything will work. Please keep this guy away from X-Men 92' and maybe even the XTAS. Give him Mackie, Layman, Asmus and Fabian's runs as examples please... even though I don't think someone like this is going to take the time to read several dozen issues of comic books. Kind of afraid that committee of Marvel folk are providing him info. Lot of bias there these days.

He developed and executive produced the Walking Dead which is literally a story centered around mindless zombies.  Yet he certainly infused a sense of intelligence that probably has never been seen before in a Zombie film which is precisely why that show is so well received.  Not to mention, the TV show is based on a comic and Robert Kirkman (writer of the comic) is on record talking about how Darabont respected the source material.

So I don't think he would have a problem respecting the comics and frankly if he actually is interested I would expect it to be because he sees something in the source material he can bring to the big screen that would make it unique just like he did with Walking Dead.

Yeah, I wasn't going to bring up Walking Dead because he didn't do any of the writing or direction, he was the showrunner. He got abruptly let go, I believe due to internal beef with AMC. But that's probably why he hasn't been active since then. He's still going to court over those matters.

I'm one of those people that prefer the older seasons of the Walking Dead so maybe this would be a good thing for me?  Although if it's somebody that's been inactive do we want them directing this film if they're rusty? 

Either way though, it's about time we got some news on whether or not this movie is actually going to move forward.

The showrunner is essentially the Director of the whole TV show.  The episode directors and writers are more of the footsoldiers.  He essentially put the formula together that made that show a success and AMC basically fired him because they wanted to keep more of the profits since it was the first AMC show where they ultimately owned it outright.  Their split was because they cut the budget per episode down and pocketed the difference and Darabont was upset because he felt they were overworking and underpaying the cast and crew.  As the below notes, the biggest beef AMC had with him beyond the budget was because he takes a "feature film approach to television," which is one of the reasons the show was so well received.
