My Chemical Freak: My Chemical Romance All The Time

Gerard tells the LA Times he doesn’t want The Umbrella Academy movie to end up like Harry Potter.

The one thing I don’t want to have happen is I don’t want it to be ‘Harry Potter.’ And the studio doesn’t want that. The boy in this story is not a boy. He’s 60 years old. He is an assassin. There’s so much about him that is extremely violent. So that’s why I don’t want this to look like ‘Harry Potter.’ It’s not pretty and nice and safe.
