Boondock Saints - Troy Duffy Update on Possible TV Spin-Off

Share on Reddit

It was revealed a month ago that Troy Duffy was in early talks to adapt his beloved Boondock Saints franchise for mature audiences on TV, hinting at a possible deal with either Showtime or HBO. When asked if any headway has been made on the series, Duffy said he has a meeting in a week's time to determine the next step. "Right now it is just an idea...a damn good one as far as I'm concerned."

As for whether or not Duffy will scratch his plans for The Boondock Saints III and continue from the second film directly into the TV series, he isn't too sure yet but did reveal that the show may revive fan favorite third wheel Rocco (David Della Rocco).

"Don't know which direction we will go. Many fans love Rocco so much and to them its a threesome so we may take a side road and have Roc and the Boys in Boston doing what they do. I know Roc is dead but this one small break from the story may provide too much opportunity and lets face it, fans want the Roc!"

Duffy confirmed that he has spoken to both actors Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery to see if they were interested in participating in a TV series focusing on their Saints characters and both seem to be interested -- but it all depends on what happens after the director's upcoming meetings. "The boys had positive responses," said Duffy, but cautioned that their other projects such as Reedus' stint on AMC's The Walking Dead aren't expendable without notice. "You can't really "drop everything" in this business. Sean and Norm ain't the kind to leave people hanging.... Reedus steals the show [on The Walking Dead]."
