Adaptation
On May 13, 2011, the film rights were optioned by Universal Studios via producers Marc E. Platt, Ross Richie and Andrew Crosby (the latter two being BOOM! Studios' cofounders) and Zack Whedon, brother to Joss Whedon, set to write the screenplay. On February 13, 2017, Neal H. Moritz’s company Original Film took over the film adaptation from Platt and won’t use Zack’s script. On February 6, 2019, Moritz moved the project to Sony Pictures Television, which got a straight-to-series order from Fox and Graham Yost set as the showrunner.
