EXCLUSIVE: The CW, which has six on-air series based on comic books, is looking to add to its portfolio with a drama based on the Valiant graphic novel Dr. Mirage. The project marks DMG Entertainment (Iron Man 3, Looper, Point Break) and Valiant’s first foray into television. Writer Gary Dauberman — who penned probably the most profitable film of 2014 with the horror title Annabelle (on a $5M budget it grossed $256.8M worldwide) — will write the TV adaptation and will executive produce the project alongside DMG’s Chris Fenton and Chris Cowles. CBS TV Studios is the studio.
Dr. Mirage centers on a female paranormal investigator who can communicate with dead souls except the one she most wants to reach – the love of her life.
DMG Entertainment is a global entertainment and media company with a publicly-listed China component, DMG Yinji which pacted with Valiant last year to mine the indie comic book publisher’s stable for characters for film and TV properties.
