Aphrodite IX is coming to the big screen...in 3-D.  The Hollywood Reporter stated that Threshold Entertainment along with Platinum Studios and Top Cow are planning to adapt the character. 

Aphrodite IX is a cyborg assassin that would get her memory wiped after each mission.  She eventually develops self-awareness and realizes killing isn't what she wants to do.  With the desire to become human, she needs to figure out who she is and where she came from.
Threshold's Larry Kasanoff and Platinum chairman and CEO Scott Mitchell Rosenberg are producing. Top Cow CEO Marc Silvestri and former Universal Pictures exec Randy Greenberg of the Greenberg Group are executive producers. Top Cow president Matt Hawkins and Platinum's Rich Marincic are co-producing.

"This is just the kind of franchise we love: a visually stunning world, amazing effects, a great story and a hot, kick-ass babe in the lead," Kasanoff said. "What could be better?"

Maybe now we'll see the "Pilot Season" book by Dan Jevons and Eric Basaldua that was intended to be released in 2007.
