Deadline report that NBC is to develop a drama series based on Midnight, Mass - a DC Vertigo title from 2002, which focused on married occult experts Adam and Julia Kadmon as they deal with supernatural cases around America. Snow White And The Huntsman co-writer Evan Daugherty is to pen the adaptation, which will be produced by Warner Bros. TV and Bill Gerber‘s Gerber Pictures.



The comic's creator John Rozum will also serve as an executive consultant on the project. This is actually not the first time NBC have attempted to get a Midnight, Mass series up and running - back in 2009 there were plans to adapt the comic with a different writing team, but it didn't go to pilot stage. Let's hope they have better luck with it this time around.

So we can expect this to fizzle up like the "SPECTRE" series!!! Which would've been [frick]ing awesome!!! Haha i doubt this will go past script development. Why is there so much fail...

It's unfortunate that if this show does make it to air, it will continuously be compared to Supernatural, even though it was published 3 years before Supernatural debuted and was also in development at NBC 3 years before Supernatural debuted.

NBC must really like this premise, because they had another series in development about married ghost hunters who encounter demons back in 2003. It was called Demonologist. That show was being developed by Clive Barker.

We'll see how this turns out.
