Syfy Orders Comic Book Adaptation “Vagrant Queen” to Series
The Vault Comics series “Vagrant Queen” is heading to the small screen thanks to Syfy, Deadline reports today, with the network ordering an adaptation to series this week.
Syfy’s series, a “fun, violent, snarky, space opera,” will be produced by Blue Ice Pictures with an all-female team of writers and directors; Jem Garrard is creator and showrunner.
It’s set to premiere on Syfy in 2020 as a 10-episode, one-hour science fiction adventure series.
“Vagrant Queen follows Elida from child queen to orphaned outcast, as she scavenges the treacherous corners of the galaxy, always one step ahead of the Republic government out to extinguish her bloodline. When her old friend Isaac shows up claiming her mother Xevelyn is still alive, they head off with their new ally, Amae, to stage a rescue that will take her back into the perilous heart of her former kingdom and up against a deadly foe from her childhood, Commander Lazaro.”
Adriyan Rae (Light as a Feather), Tim Rozon (Diggstown) and Paul du Toit (Maze Runner) will star.
“Vagrant Queen” was co-created by Magdalene Visaggio (Kim & Kim) and Jason Smith.
Today, Prime Video announced that Emily Mortimer (Relic), Manny Jacinto (The Acolyte), and Thomasin McKenzie (Victorian Psycho, Eileen) have joined the cast of Season Three of Fallout.
The hit series begins production on its third season this month in Los Angeles.
The series based on the video games tells “the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have. Two hundred years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind—and are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them.“
The series stars Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets, Sweetpea), Aaron Moten (Emancipation, Father Stu), Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones), Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks), Moisés Arias (The King of Staten Island), Frances Turner (The Boys), Annabel O’Hagan (Rent Free), and Dave Register (FBI).
Aaron Paul (Anything But Ghosts) has also joined the cast for Season Three, as previously announced.
Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner serve as executive producers, creators, and showrunners.
