Hellraiser fans, get ready! A TV adaptation of your favorite horror franchise is in the works! Producers Roy Lee (The Exorcist 1973, The Ring 2002) and Dan Farah (Ready Player One 2018) have joined with the producers/rights holders of the franchise, Lawrence Kuppin, David Salzman, and Eric Gardner, to create this original series.
Synopsis
Centering on the elegantly Machiavellian antagonist, Pinhead, and the infamous Lament Configuration (the puzzle box which opens the portal to what appears to be Hell), the series will incorporate the elements of classic Hellraiser mythology while delivering a modern re-imagining of the seminal brand for television.
There is a search now underway for a writer/showrunner with several A-list names and networks already interested in the project. Are you as excited as I am about this new take on the Hellraiser story? Let us know in the comments below!
