Happy! - Christopher Meloni to Star in Syfy Pilot

Share on Reddit



Chris Meloni is headed to Syfy.

The Law & Order: SVU alum is set to star in the cabler's adaptation of Grant Morrison's graphic novel Happy!, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Ordered to pilot in September, Happy! centers on Nick Sax (Meloni) – an intoxicated, corrupt ex-cop turned hit man – who is adrift in a world of casual murder, soulless sex and betrayal. Once a rock star detective for a major metropolitan police force, Nick lost it all. Now he's a broken, down-and-out hired killer that makes just enough money to support a steady diet of booze, drugs and sarcasm by carrying out hits for the mob. After a hit gone wrong, Nick's life is forever changed by a tiny, relentlessly positive, imaginary blue winged horse.

Meloni will also exec produce the pilot.

Based on The New York Times best-selling graphic novel from Morrison (Batman, The Invisibles) and Darick Robertson, Morrison and Brian Taylor (Crank, Gamer) will write the pilot, which Taylor will also direct.
