Timeline

1930

Creator Dave Stevens liked that "their ideas for The Rocketeer were heartfelt and affectionate tributes to the 1930s serials with all the right dialogue and atmosphere. Most people would approach my characters contemporarily, but Danny and Paul saw them as pre-war mugs."

that same year, the trio approached William Dear to direct/co-write The Rocketeer, and they eventually dropped the low-budget idea.

Bilson, De Meo, and Dear kept the comic book's basic plot intact, but fleshed it out to include a Hollywood setting and a climactic battle against a Nazi Zeppelin.

They also tweaked Cliff's girlfriend to avoid comparisons to Bettie Page (Stevens' original inspiration), changing her name from Betty to Jenny and her profession from nude model to Hollywood extra (a change also made to make the film more family friendly).

The two had a rough executive experience, in which scenes were deleted only to be restored years later.

1953

Paul James De Meo (June 4, 1953 – February 26, 2018 ) was an American screenwriter and producer for film, television and video games.

He frequently worked with Danny Bilson.

1985

Bilson and DeMeo produced their first script, Trancers (1985), a noir tale about a time-travelling detective from the future.

Five sequels were made.

After, they did two comedies, Zone Troopers (1985) and The Wrong Guys (1988).

Next, they undertook the adaptation of The Rocketeer in 1985.

Writing for Disney, the partners were hired and fired several times during the five years of movie development.

1986

Together, they wrote Eliminators (1986), The Rocketeer (1991), the video game James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing (2003), the television series Viper (1994, 1996), The Sentinel (1996), and both the television and comic book series of The Flash (1990).

1990

DeMeo would spend the rest of the 1990s working in television, creating programmes like Human Target, and would transition into video games in the 2000s, working on several James Bond games.

He later wrote both the film adaptation and video game sequel to Company of Heroes.

1991

The film finally made it to theaters in 1991, where it underperformed at the box office but developed a cult following.

2006

Bilson and De Meo returned to writing comics, co-writing The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive for DC Comics in 2006.

They also wrote a mini-series for Wildstorm Comics named Red Menace with actor Adam Brody (who was dating Bilson's daughter Rachel Bilson at the time).

His last screenplay, the Vietnam War drama Da 5 Bloods, was made into a film, posthumously, in 2020 by Spike Lee and released by Netflix.
