FOX want their slice of the fantasy series cake. They’ve paid 100 gold coins for Magicians — a drama series adaptation of Lev Grossman’s popular fantasy novel, with a script commitment plus penalty if it doesn’t go forward.
The high-concept series will be written by Ashley Miller & Zack Stentz (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Fringe) and produced by Michael London (Milk), Shawn Levy and Michael Adelstein.
Based on Grossman’s book, which is seen by some as a grown-up version of Harry Potter, the one-hour drama follows a group of 20-somethings in New York who study magic and have access to a magical world.
