Gunpowder & Sky’s sci-fi label Dust is currently in the process of developing a new series adaptation of The Island of Dr. Moreau, based on H.G. Wells’ 1896 classic novel of the same name.
Although this marks the first time that The Island of Dr. Moreau will be adapted into a series, the sci-fi novel has actually had previous film adaptations including director John Frankenheimer’s 1996 film of the same name which starred Marlon Brando, Van Kilmer, David Thewlis, and Fairuza Balk.
I’m delighted to be working with Eric, Geoff & the Gunpowder & Sky team to welcome a whole new generation to the good doctor’s terrifying island.”
The series will be written by X-Men: First Class scribe Zack Stentz.
