Current Talk '24 I / Re: **‘Dark Shadows’ Gets New Blood As CW, Warner Bros Television Set Pilot Script Deal**
« on: May 14, 2020, 10:26:58 PM »
An Update that seems to confirm what we've been learning from recent articles:
Arrow Spinoff, The 100 Prequel Still Under Consideration at The CW
'Similarly, the long-gestating, oft-revisited The Lost Boys pilot has been “rolled” to the next development cycle, while the Dark Shadows sequel announced in September has yet to make it to the pilot stage.'
Why is DS:R's development taking so long? Hell if any of us know! As I've been lamenting, beyond the largely heralded September announcement and the reports as recent as less than a month ago that it's still in development, forget any sort of details, there hasn't even been word one since September. Though I'm sure that once they're ready to tell us something, they will. Just who knows when that will be? And who knows if Mark Perry has even written a completed script? (Or if he has but he's been making changes requested by the CW and/or fellow producers?) But then, as bad as we might think things may have been for us, think of what it's been like for fans of The Lost Boys because apparently now they'll be waiting for 3 years to see if that project moves forward to series...
