Warner Bros. Animation developing Dark Shadows as adult animated series
"ABSOLUTE BATMAN" is in development at Warner Bros. Animation and DC Studios. Writer Scott Snyder serves as showrunner and artist Nick Dragotta is a producer on this adaptation of their popular comic that reimagines the Dark Knight as a working class hero up against impossible odds. #AnnecyFestival
The series has yet to be set up at a network or streaming service.
Wow that was a fast turnaround!
As awesome as this sounds, I'd be more interested if she was getting a show...
Well hot damn. I hope if this takes off the other Absolute series get shows. This whole universe feels ripe for animation!
We're going to get Batman cartoons numbering in the double digits before we get one Wonder Woman cartoon
Seems a bit rushed to be adapting a run that is actively still being published?
Finally, we'll get to hear the immortal line.
DARK SHADOWS is coming back to life. Warner Bros. Animation has announced an adult animated series based on the classic 1960s show. Blending gothic, horror & supernatural genres, this adaptation promises all the dark twists & romantic intrigue that defined the series.
I'm not sure why this property gets disinterred every decade or so. Its a Vampire Soap Opera. Still, an animated version does promise to be different.
Your man there Jonathan Frid was at RADA in London with Martin Landau
Holy crap, WHO DO I NEED TO TALK TO TO GET IN ON THIS DREAM PROJECT!?!?! I DO BACKGROUNDS AND PAINT AGGHHHH
i have the perfect animation studio to suggest for this
Rarely would I be so bold as to publicly post “how do I get into that writing room,” but, like, ”…how do get in that writing room?!”
kinda fascinated by this tbh, the original was not great. really curious what they think they're going to get from (hehe) reanimating it
LET ME IN I PROMISE I CAN BE A NORMAL VOICE ACTOR FOR THIS SHOW!
I’ve been so ready for this. #DarkShadows #HauntedDavidArt #BarnabasCollins #Collinwood
who will be brave and correct enough to hire dorian on this
This is intriguing. But also the phrase 'adult animated series' immediately makes me think 'bland visuals and lifeless voice acting'. Hope to be wrong every time!
No way this stands up to the original series…but please let it be good
Do it right or not at all.
