“The Walking Dead” Creator Robert Kirkman Developing New Apocalyptic Series “5 Year”
AMC’s “The Walking Dead” all began, of course, with Robert Kirkman‘s same-named comic book series, and the show has made Kirkman a powerful force in the television landscape. On that note, Deadline reports today that Kirkman’s Skybound Entertainment has inked an agreement with Entertainment One for a new series titled 5 Year.
“The series is set during the final five years before a fatal meteor hits the Earth.”
The site further details, “With international deals already in place for Korea, the UK, Latin America, Germany, India Russia, China, and Italy for the five-season series and more in the mix, the Kirkman, David Alpert and Jon Goldman-run Skybound aim to localize 5 Year to take advantage of the scope of the small screen. That means evolving beyond the initial Korean deal announced in 2016 to where a different version of 5 Year will be produced for each market with narratives and characters set in that region. Those individualized 5 Year will be in that locale or nation’s own language while following an overall timeline for the entire series.”
Skybound and eOne will co-produce, with eOne distributing the series.
Prime Video has unveiled the official full trailer for “The Boys” season 4, introducing new Superhero baddies for our antiheroes to take on. Even more intriguing, though, are the familiar faces from spinoff series “Gen V“ joining the fray.
The Emmy-nominated global hit series will return on June 13, 2024.
In season four, “The world is on the brink. Victoria Neuman is closer than ever to the Oval Office and under the muscly thumb of Homelander, who is consolidating his power. Butcher, with only months to live, has lost Becca’s son as well as his job as The Boys’ leader. The rest of the team are fed up with his lies. With the stakes higher than ever, they have to find a way to work together and save the world before it’s too late.”
Watch the official trailer below.
The series hails from a team including Eric Kripke, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.
Season four stars Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capone, Karen Fukuhara, Colby Minifie, Claudia Doumit, and Cameron Crovetti, and welcomes Susan Heyward, Valorie Curry, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan to the series.
