With the success of The Walking Dead, tv studios and networks are eager to work with creator Robert Kirkman.
As part of his development deal with NBC Universal, Image Comics’ Clone is being developed as a potential television series. Created by David Schulner, Clone comes from Kirkman’s Image Comics banner.
The news broke Saturday during the annual San Diego Comic Con.
Schulner will pen the script and executive produce alongside Kirkman and The Walking Dead’s David Alpert and David Engel.
The series is high-octane thriller with a sci-fi twist: What if there were more of you? And what if you could save those versions of yourself from being killed? The show’s themes of identity and nature vs. nurture are intrinsic to the roller-coaster ride of a story.
For Kirkman, this marks his latest project in development. It joins AMC’s comic adaptationThief of Thieves — inspired by his experience in the Walking Dead writers’ room — as well as an exorcism drama from Fox International Channels and Circle of Confusion.
