It may be a canceled TNT series, but that isn't stopping studios from trying to bring "Witchblade" to life again ... this time on the big screen.

Dark Horizons is reporting that Platinum Studios, Top Cow Productions and Arclight Films are joining forces to create a live action feature film based on the comicbook series.

But if you are a fan of the Yancy Butler old series you shouldn't get too carried away because this adaptation will be a completely separate entity altogether.

"Witchblade" is the story of a New York detective named Sara "Pez" Pezzini and her personal search for justice using the Witchblade -- an ancient, intelligent, living gauntlet so powerful it can battle Earth's darkest evil forces. She may fight crime during the day, but the legend of the Witchblade proves to powerful and soon she finds herself fighting evil on a whole new level.

No casting has yet been announced and the project will take place in Australia.

The original series aired from 2001 to 2002 on TNT.
