Robert Kirkman’s Oblivion Song in development as feature film

June 13, 2019 by Gary Collinson

Skybound Entertainment and Universal Pictures are teaming up for an adaptation of the sci-fi drama comic book series Oblivion Song from The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman and artist Lorenzo De Felici.

Oblivion Song takes place a decade after 300,000 citizens of Philadelphia were suddenly lost in Oblivion. The government made every attempt to recover them but after many years they gave up. Nathan Cole won’t. He makes daily trips, risking his life to try and rescue those lost, alone and afraid, living in the apocalyptic hellscape of Oblivion. But maybe… Nathan is looking for something else. Why can’t he resist the siren call of the Oblivion Song?

The Oblivion Song adaptation will be produced by Skybound’s film team, including Robert Kirkman, David Alpert, Bryan Furst, and Sean Furst, with Sean O’Keefe attached to write the script. Universal’s Executive Vice President of Production Jon Mone and Director of Development Lexi Barta will oversee the project on behalf of the studio.
