It was announced in May 2022 that a live action television series was greenlit by Apple TV+, with Ron Fitzgerald and Hiram Martinez set to write and showrun the series, and J. J. Abrams serving as executive producer.[1] It was reported the series will be based around a script Abrams had written in the 1990s for an unproduced film adaptation he was attached to.[2]
