The Boys Drama Based On Comic Book Set At Cinemax
After bringing Garth Ennis Preacher to the screen with the upcoming AMC series, Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg and Neal Moritz are tackling another dark and violent comic book by Ennis on cable television. Cinemax has put in development The Boys, from the Preacher team of Rogen and Goldbergs Point Grey, Moritzs Original Film and Sony TV.
Developed by Rogen, Goldberg and Supernatural creator Eric Kripke, and to be written by Kripke based on the graphic novel written by Ennis and illustrated by Darick Robertson, the series is set in a time where most of the superheroes are corrupted by their celebrity status and often engage in reckless behavior, compromising the safety of the world. It centers on a CIA squad, known informally as the boys, whose job is to keep watch on the proliferation of superheroes and, if necessary, eliminate some of them.
Rogen and Goldberg, who helmed the Preacher pilot, are set to direct.
