Syfy Summons Legion

 

Syfy is developing a television series based on Legion, the 2010 supernatural thriller about humanity’s battle for survival against God’s angels.

Deadline reports that the film’s director and co-writer Scott Stewart will direct and executive produce the TV adaptation, written by Vaun Wilmott (Sons of Anarchy). Sony Pictures TV is producing.

The $26 million film, which starred Paul Bettany, Lucas Black, Tyrese Gibson and Adrianne Palicki, grossed about $68 million worldwide, and received largely negative reviews.
