Judge Dredd: Mega-City One tv series announcement
« on: 10 May 2017, 09:29:44 PM »
I'm amazed no one has seen this  ;)



Its going to be done by Rebellion themselves and the producer, Brian Jenkins, is a miniatures fan who had his own Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/TemplarsCrusade01

Now if they get Karl Urban for the job... :o :o

If you head over to 2000ADs facebook page you can sign up for updates.

I'm optimistic.There's alot of scope for them to bugger it up royally, But if they follow the guidelines of Dredd 3d with input from the comic writers we should be golden.
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

Wow!

I assume that means The Mouse's television option has expired.

Will it be filmed here, Canada or on location?

My guess is Canada, since the distributor (can't remember the name) is the same that did Stargate; Battlestar Galactica  and those series were mainly filmed in Canada.

Awesome news! I, too, would love to see Karl Urban reprising his Dredd role, but even if they get some new actor, I'll still watch it.  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

More info on the team behind it:

Quote
Attached to the production as Executive Producers are President of IM Global Television, Mark Stern, who developed critically-acclaimed series Battlestar Galactica, Helix, and Defiance at Syfy, IM Global Television CEO Stuart Ford, and the owners of Rebellion, Jason and Chris Kingsley, who along with Ford, were also executive producers on the 2012 DREDD feature film adaptation from DNA Films, Reliance Entertainment and IM Global.

so maybe we'll get a tv series closer to the 2012 movie  :)

Found it funny that the producer of the series turned out to be TemplarsCrusade from YouTube (Bolt Action and Warhammer guy). So at the very least it's one of "us" at the helm of the series :D

Yeah, and this explained why he left the channel. Loved his tutorials and reviews  :D

Same for me! :D But hey, if he's going to make a Judge Dredd series that's great then I'm all for him leaving his channel!

I'm OK with that as long as Dredd keeps his helmet on.
