A Deadpool animated TV series is in the works over at FXX.
The show will be created by Donald Glover and his brother Stephen Glover who have recently worked together on the TV series Atlanta. The brothers will serve as showrunners for the series, and FXX has given the currently untitled show a straight to series order of 10 episodes.
Expected to debut sometime in 2018, with Marvel’s Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory on board as executive producers, the show will be produced by Marvel Television in conjuncture with FX Productions and ABC Signature Studios.
Loeb has said about the project, “How much more fun could this be? Deadpool, Donald and FX – the perfect fit for the Merc with the Mouth. We’re thrilled that our relationship with FX that started with Legion continues with what is sure to be a groundbreaking show in adult animation.”
No voice actors have been announced at this time.
