But with "Cowboys & Aliens" under its belt, Platinum is now ready to build a franchise plan around another of its books, "Atlantis Rising."

Platinum now controls the rights to that property after a film version was initially set up at DreamWorks with Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci on board to produce (they also co-produced "Cowboys & Aliens").

It's an actioner about an underworld civilization that wages war against the rest of the Earth. A revamped version of the book arrives in August to pave the way for new pic.

Rosenberg wants to introduce a version that hasn't been seen before.

"Everybody always wants to see Atlantis as Shangri-la or (its inhabitants) as bad guys," he said. "Why do they have to be bad guys?"
