Tim Kring’s Imperative Entertainment adapting Black Mask Studios’ Mayday

May 5, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Imperative Entertainment – which is run by Tim Kring, creator of Heroes – has teamed up with Black Mask Studios to adapt the comic book series Mayday as a scripted television series.

MAYDAY lives in the underbelly of the Hollywood scene, where a washed-up, drug-addicted screenwriter and a transgender bartender stumble onto a Satanic cult’s plan to sacrifice people all across LA and bring on Armageddon. As our damaged heroes embark on a suicide mission to stop the crazy cultists, they begin to wonder if this is all really happening or if they’re just plain crazy… Probably both.

The project marts Black Mask’s latest foray into TV, joining the adaptations of Steve Niles andChristopher Mittens’ The Disciples in development with Wes Craven at Universal Cable Productions and Frank Barbiere and Chris Mooneyham’s Five Ghosts in development with UCP and BenderSpink at Syfy where Evan Daugherty (Snow White and the Huntsman) is writing the pilot.
