In 2015, A&E announced plans to adapt Let the Right One In for TV, with the project then hopping networks to TNT in 2016.
A critical darling and award magnet, Let the Right One In was considered by many to be the best horror film of 2008, as well as one of the best horror films of its entire decade.
Let the Right One In was subsequently adapted for American audiences in 2010 by future Batman director Matt Reeves, and given an altered title of Let Me In.
Directed by Tomas Alfredson, Let the Right One In was itself an adaptation of the 2004 novel of the same name, with book author John Ajvide Lindqvist writing the screenplay himself.
