Holy hell — Bryan Fuller is pop off to bring Neil Gaiman ’s American Gods to telecasting . We are freaking out .
After American Gods got stuck indevelopment hell at HBOitbounced arounduntil in conclusion find a seat to land today . Starz just announced in a press release that not only will they be providing a base for the long - awaited TV adjustment of Neil Gaiman ’s urban fantasy novel American Gods , but they are have Bryan Fuller ( Pushing Daisies , Hannibal ) and Michael Green ( The River , Kings0 to write the pilot and Colorado - bring on the show ( along with Gaiman ) . Yes , wow , everyone gross out out .
This is a very different crew than we anticipated , but we are very emotional that Fuller will be around to work on the fantasy expression of this book .
In the press sack , Gaiman had this to say about this show finally becoming a reality :
“ When you create something like ‘ American Gods , ’ which draw in fans and obsessive and the great unwashed who tattoo quotes from it on themselves or each other , and who all , tattooed or not , just deal about it deeply , it ’s really significant to nibble your team cautiously : you do n’t desire to let the sports fan down , or the people who wish and have been cast it online since the dawn of record history . What I love most about the team who I entrust to take it out to the world , is that they are the same sort of fiend that ‘ American Gods ’ has attracted since the outset . I have n’t really checked Bryan Fuller or Michael Green for quote tattoos , but I would not be surprised if they have them . The people at Fremantle are the kinds of people who have copy of ‘ American Gods ’ in the bottom of their packsack after going around the world , and who press them on their friends . And the squad at Starz have been quite certain that they want to give Shadow , Wednesday and Laura a home since they first hear that the book was out there . I ca n’t wait to see what they do to bring the account to the widest possible audience able-bodied to deal with it . ”
Fingers crossed , everyone . approximate we ’re ordering Starz now .
