IDW Entertainment is developing, financing and producing a scripted series based on Mike Carey and Arvind Ethan David’s Darkness Visible, reports Deadline today.
In the comic book series, a supernatural thriller…
“Darkness Visible takes place in a world in which demons helped the Allied powers win World War 2, and humanity has reluctantly agreed to share the world with another sentient race. Sixty years later, this uneasy co-existence has spawned an endless terrorist conflict. Detective Daniel Aston, charged with being the thin blue line between the two sides, is tested to the limit when a demon sets up house inside his soul.”
“Darkness Visible was an opportunity to create a supernatural thriller with a razor-sharp political edge,” said Carey. “And it’s only become more topical since Arvind and I first dreamed it up. Now, working with professionals who know and care about story, I’m very excited to bring Darkness Visible to the screen and look forward to working with IDW, Intrepid Pictures and my good friends at Ideate Media.”
IDWE President David Ozer will executive produce along with Carey, Cavan Ash, Trevor Macy, and IDWE’s CEO Ted Adams and President David Ozer.
