Seth Green has built up a long résumé as actor, writer and producer in a relatively short time, and he's about to add first-time movie director to the list. He tells Moviehole that he plans to direct The Freshmen, an adaptation of a comic book he and Hugh Sterbakov created for Top Cow Productions. (Hey, that's my old alma mater, too!) The story, as Green describes it, is a cross between Revenge of the Nerds and X-Men, and revolves around a group of misfit kids just starting off in college only to find themselves beset by mostly minor super powers. One guy compulsively hoards nuts, another has intoxicating belches, and another guy's lengthy endowments suddenly give "freshman fifteen" a whole new meaning.
