‘Deadpool’ Animated Series Coming From Donald Glover

Deadpool

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Donald Glover will be writing, producing, and show-running a new animated series based on Deadpool.

The 10-episode series will launch in 2018, with Marvel’s Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory joining the Glover brothers as exec producers. Loeb and his executives are believed to be big fans of FXX’s Archer, and approached FX brass with the idea, not the other way around. FX then approached Glover, a significant talent with increasing geek cred. Following a complex negotiation, the series will hail from Marvel Television, FX Productions and ABC Studios’ cable arm, ABC Signature. A voice cast has not yet been determined.

I am so in.
