May 6, 2019 Update

Today's update:
  • Abyss new show starts today with new episodes arriving on Mondays and Tuesdays until June 4.

    Todays development hell list are shows I haven't had any updates on for about 3 years.
  • After (Freeform) - Based on Rhiannon Thomas’ novel A Wicked Thing, which "re-imagines Sleeping Beauty and what happens after happily ever. In it, Princess Aurora wakes up to the kiss of a handsome prince one hundred years after falling asleep to find her family long dead and her kingdom taken from her. She must transform into a warrior to regain it."
  • Red Mars (Paramount Network) - Based on Kim Stanley Robinson's books "Red Mars," "Green Mars," and "Blue Mars," which chronicle mankind's colonization and transformation of the red planet. It was picked up to series in late 2015. 2 different showrunners left in 2016 due to creative differences with then SpikeTV, and the show has been on hold since.
  • Captain Britain - Marvel super hero show. There was a reference to Captain Britain in "Avengers: Endgame", which might increase its chances of being made.
  • Weaveworld (CW) - Based on Clive Barker's book which "is set in 1980s England and revolves around The Seerkind – a race of people with the capacity to invoke magic." This one has been in development for many years. It was on my list way back when I had a "maybe" section that I maintained on the website. Still might happen though.
  • Three Broken Stars (Freeform) - Based on a book by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner about "a massive luxury spaceliner is yanked out of hyperspace and plummets into the nearest planet. Lilac LaRoux — the daughter of the richest man in the universe — and Tarver Merendsen — a young war hero who comes from nothing — are the only survivors and must work together, making a tortuous journey across the eerie, deserted terrain to seek help."
  • Scarlet (Cinemax) - Marvel super hero.
  • Battlefield - Based on the Battlefield video game franchise.
  • Tomorrow, Today (Starz) - "A superhero-themed series about a veteran from the south side of Chicago who, after being falsely imprisoned, becomes the personal experiment of a mad prison doctor trying to create the perfect man - and an unstoppable killing machine. Set free, but on the run, the veteran must reconcile with the world that has turned against him, and use his newfound abilities for good."
  • Brave New World (Syfy) - Based on Aldus Huxley's classic book.
  • The Ark (NBC) - Modernized version of Noah's Ark. "It centers on an engineer who, after the death of his wife, has a vision to construct a ship capable of sustaining life in space. When the build happens to coincide with the coming end of the world, the engineer realizes there may be a larger story at play."
