Below is where darkness lives.
The novel may not even be coming out until Summer 2018, but Deadline reports today that IDW Entertainment has already optioned sci-fi thriller Awakened for a TV series adaptation.
It was penned by “Impractical Jokers” star James Murray, along with Darren Wearmouth.
The book centers around a long-awaited New York subway line that connects the city with communities across the Hudson River. When the train finally pulls in to the station on its inaugural run, all the cars are empty and their interiors are drenched in blood. Deadly methane fills the tunnels, the structure floods,and another terrifying danger awaits – the thing that killed all those people on the train.
IDW will develop “Awakened” with the goal of securing a straight-to-series commitment. Murray will executive produce, along with IDW Media Holdings CEO Ted Adams and IDW Entertainment President David Ozer.
