Spider-Man breakout Jacob Batalon is set to star in Reginald The Vampire (w/t), a dramedy in the works at Syfy based on Johnny B. Truant’s Fat Vampire book series. The series, which hails from Harley Peyton (Twin Peaks, Chucky), received a straight to series 10-episode order.
Written by Peyton, who will serve as showrunner, the series is set in a world populated by beautiful, fit and vain vampires. Reginald Baskin (Batalon) tumbles headlong into it as an unlikely hero who will have to navigate every kind of obstacle – the girl he loves but can’t be with, a bully manager at work and the vampire chieftain who wants him dead. Fortunately, Reginald discovers he has a few unrecognized powers of his own. A new show with a lot of heart and just enough blood, Reginald the Vampire proves the undead life is just as complicated as life itself.
