Mentioning you worked in the Witcher series I’d s good way to ensure in very cautious and wary of anything else you ever do.

I’m not familiar with that series, but these are not the people you want adapting your favorite books…

I LOVE this. But I’m scared they’re going to dumb it down and fuck it up. Fingers crossed we get the weird strange worl he made in its entirety

The crew behind the Halo tv series were too busy to join this wonderful collaboration?

I expect bad things.

I expect they will 100% change !Xabbu’s name to something without a click. And I’ll eat my hat if they actually actually do the Heart of Darkness boat ride through fascist Oz thing.
That said, I’m not convinced that a good adaptation is even possible no matter who produces it. Certainly not live action; maybe as an animated series.
