DC Vertigo's SCALPED TV Show In The Works
THR report that WGN America is set to bring Jason Aaron's critically acclaimed DC/Vertigo crime noir title Scalped to the small screen, with Banshee's Doug Jung on script duties. Click on for more details.
DC Entertainment have yet another tv adaptation of one of their comic books in the works, this time at WGN America. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the cable network is developing a series based on the Vertigo comic, Scalped, which is a pretty great crime tale set on a Native American reservation. The series will be written by Banshee scribe Doug Jung. When I interviewed Prometheus actor Logan Marshall-Green a while back, he said if he could play any comic book character it'd be Dashiell "Dash" Bad Horse from Scalped..so maybe now's his chance! Jason Aaron's Scalped launched in 2007 and ran for 60 issues, ending in 2012.
