Acclaimed film director Steven Spielberg is teaming up with writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci (Fringe, Star Trek), as well as Josh Friedman (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) to bring one of my favorite comic books, Joe Hill & Gabriel Rodriguez‘s Locke & Key, to the TV screen.
Since I’ve been reading the comic book series, I’ve constantly felt the story would make a great mini-series, movie, or TV show, so it’s great to see some validation there. The comic book centers around a family that is constantly being forced into terrible situations ranging from death, alcoholism, the supernatural, and how they deal with each problem. It’s a fascinating book, and I cannot wait for more eyes to be focused on this amazing story penned by Joe Hill.
But what do you guys think? Will the series be ruined by television, or do you think it’ll be great? I’m personally expecting a cross between Supernatural and what we’ve seen from AMC’s The Walking Dead.
