Limbs flew in director Jung Byung-gil‘s violent action flick The Villainess back in 2017, which Kalyn raved about in her review for BD. She wrote, “The Villainess has it all, including one of the fiercest lady killers in quite some time.” Less than two years after the film’s release, Deadline reports that Robert Kirkman‘s Skybound is developing a TV series!
Skybound Entertainment will be bringing the Korean action film to the small screen, with Jung Byung-gil (the film’s director) directing the pilot episode.
“The Villainess follows Anes, who was kidnapped from her home in Korea and raised as a deadly assassin in Los Angeles. Just when Anes believes she has found true peace, unsettling events drive her to return to Korea to uncover dangerous truths about her home and her past.”
Skybound and Contents Panda are currently looking for a writer.
