Dungeons & Dragons Series In The Works With John Wick Writer

[JayC 2,723]

It is being reported by THR that on top of a movie, Hasbro/eOne is also looking to do a live-action TV series based on the role-play game Dungeons & Dragons. According to the report Derek Kolstad, who created and wrote the John Wick movies has been tapped to pen the story for this series.

With both a movie and live-action TV series coming, I imagine it's only a matter of time before Hasbro brings us a whole line of action figures for the franchise.

Hmm, now the Amazon's Middle Earth tv series got some competition. I'm not a D&D fan, but I want to be at least in the know.

I won't hold my breath for a possible line of figures...I'll end up disappointed.

So much D&D stuff in the works, I'm happy about this!

Outside of the cartoon, I was never really into the whole D&D scene. Of course, I was still a little young for it when the whole RPG craze was at its peak. By the time I hit my teens, I was more into the Palladium stuff (Heroes Unlimited, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and other Strangeness, etc.).

Can't really get to excited for a D&D series. Of course it doesn't help that every fantasy themed movie, TV show, video game, or book since the 80s has basically BEEN a riff on the whole D&D theme. By now any series would be just another formula we've seen a hundred times.

It could be that I'm not much for Dungeons & Dragons but I cant help but feel this will end up being either a GOT or LOTR clone.

Interesting....

They have tons of D&D storylines,  just using "The Wiz"  stuff.

There is plenty of material to write with. If they go that way...

Now being Kolstad.....We might just have; "Guns and Sorcery"!!!!

Hey....Just do a "Shadowrun" Movie/Show!!! =^)

That would really have my interest.
