> Romeo and Juliet: The War ... focuses on two groups of superhuman soldiers, the Montagues and the Capulets. The Montagues are powerful cyborgs, while the Capulets are genetically enhanced humans. Living together in the Empire of Verona, they work together to remove threats from the city but when there’s no one left to fight, they turn to the next best thing: each other. Following the classic Romeo and Juliet storyline, a boy and girl from the warring sides fall in love and plan to secretly marry, but may be thwarted by forces beyond their control.

Really? You think the comic book "Romeo and Juliet: The War" is well known?
Or in your own ignorance did you assume this concept for adapting Romeo and Juliet was made up for the movie and thought he was talking about the original Shakespeare?
literally Shakespeare's Twilight: The Divergent

"he" should have probably specified comic book then

But we haven't told this story the way it should be told yet!
Forget the other 24,601 adaptations of a story that isn't particularly good in the first place, THIS shit's where it's at!
