John Cusack’s stepping away from Hollywood to dive into writing fiction—his first graphic novel, Momo, is a wild, genre-bending 1972 road trip with cosmic stakes, co-created with illustrator Ignacio Noé and released September 29. He’s trading studio politics and algorithm-driven decisions for total creative control, calling it an “anti-algorithm” project. With no committees or poll testing, Cusack’s new venture lets him tell stories his way—no more compromises. He’s even open to starring in a potential film adaptation if it takes off. This bold pivot mirrors his sister Joan’s own career reset, and it’s a defiant move toward artistic freedom in an industry he says “sucks” these days.
