Karl Urban Confirms Talks To Return As JUDGE DREDD In IM Global's Live-Action Adaptation MEGA-CITY ONE
Karl Urban might suit back up as "The Law" in IM Global's Judge Dredd: Mega City One. The Star Trek Beyond and Thor: Ragnarok actor confirmed that he's had talks with the leading streaming platform.
Appearing at an official Star Trek convention in Las Vegas, actor Karl Urban confirmed that he's in talks to return as Judge Dredd in IM Global's live-action series. In fact, it sounds as if he'll definitely return as long as there's substance and merit to the project. Said Urban, "I am in discussions with them about that. I told them that if they write the material and give Dredd something to do and give him a function, I will be there. I would love to."
The news shouldn't be too much of a surprise as Urban campaigned pretty hard alongside fans for a sequel to 2012's criminally under-performing, Dredd. It's obvious he has genuine love for the character so as long as executive producer Brian Jenkins and the development team cook up something of quality, it sounds as if fans should expect Urban to return.
UPDATE: Netflix is rumored to be the home of the series but a deal has not been completed. Other destinations for the show reportedly include Amazon and HBO.
