Superman Prequel ‘Krypton’ TV Series Lands at SyFy
Thanks Gotham!





Superman Prequel ‘Krypton’ TV Series Lands at Syfy From David Goyer

Read More: 'Krypton' TV Series with David Goyer Lands At Syfy | http://screencrush.com/krypton-tv-se...ckback=tsmclip


We did it, everyone! First ‘Smallville’ took us back to a teenage Clark Kent’s evolution into the Man of Steel, then ‘Gotham’ explored the origins of a prepubescent Batman. Now Syfy is officially upping the ante with writer David Goyer to create a ‘Krypton’ TV series, exploring the origin’s origin’s origin of Superman’s grandpappy!

Granted, we’d heard of the potential for Goyer’s ‘Krypton’ series before, though at the time few details were known beyond the prequel’s title, and its presumable implications. Now, Syfy’s order has detailed that Goyer and ‘Once Upon A Time’’s Ian Goldberg will executive produce the project, which goes beyond Jor-El to delve even further into Superman’s history:

Years before the Superman legend we know, the House of El was shamed and ostracized. This series follows The Man of Steel’s grandfather as he brings hope and equality to Krypton, turning a planet in disarray into one worthy of giving birth to the greatest Super Hero ever known.

I’ll be frank, the potential for a ‘Krypton’ TV series probably exceeds that of something like ‘Gotham,’ in that an alien world with unfamiliar characters plays right into Syfy’s wheelhouse, and wouldn’t work so hard to beat us over the head with references to future DC heroes and villains. And while it seemed like CBS’ ‘Supergirl’ had us covered for Warner Bros. sidestepping its cinematic universe to put a Kryptonian hero on TV, Syfy would no doubt have considerable investment in bringing its own DC drama to life.

Just so long as we don’t have Brainiac as a tortured adolescent. Or Jim Gordon as a hotshot rookie in the Krypton Police Department. You scoff, but they’ll do it. They’re making a TV series about Superman’s grandpa. By god, they’ll do it.

What do you think? Could Syfy’s ‘Krypton’ exceed ‘Gotham’ in the superhero origin arms race? Can ‘Arrow’ and ‘The Flash’ come and play too, because time travel, or something?

Syfy has been missing on a lot of their new shows. I have a feeling this would be worse than Defiance..

Why would anyone be interested in Krypton before Kal El is born?

What I found interesting is that it is his grandfather rather than his father. Doesn't make any sense to me.

I could see some interest in Jor El and Zod, but the grandfather?

I don't think we've seen any of their new shows yet. Stuff like Defiance and Helix was done under the old network leadership. If I remember right Ascenscion will be the first thing developed under the new directive (to return to more classic, higher quality stuff...) to make air, next Monday.

Not that that means this looks like a good idea.

Actually..... They're doing a movie instead of a series. And it's Aunt May, not Uncle Ben...

That was debunked a day or two later.

Although my theory is they were testing the waters.

Sony has no idea what to do with Spider-Man. If they don't keep making movies, the rights revert to Marvel, which would be awesome because he could be included in the Avengers films.

I think they're getting ever closer to "licensing" the character to both Fox and Disney so that they can earn something from the rights.

I wish the email from their hackers said, "Release the rights to Spiderman to Marvel!" Instead of The Interview.

How about a series set around young cub reporter Perry White?

He could bump into young villains like Lex Luthor
