"Sin City" author Frank Miller has locked a deal with Legendary television to adapt the comics as a TV series.
Robert Rodriguez, who directed the 2005 movie based on the film noir-influenced comics, is also on board to executive produce with Miller.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a writer for the project is not yet attached.
As per the deal, Legendary has guaranteed a first season of the show, contingent on setting it up with a network or streaming platform.
The deal with Miller also calls for a hard-R animated series for a "Sin City" prequel based on Miller's graphic novels.
Also to produce is Stephen L'Heureux, a producer of the 2014 sequel "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For", and Silenn Thomas, who heads Miller's production company.
