In addition to this year’s upcoming feature film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, Deadline reports that Paramount+ has also boarded a “Dungeons & Dragons” TV series.
“The streamer has landed an eight-episode series based on the ever-popular role playing game,” Deadline explains. The series comes from Entertainment One and Paramount Pictures.
Rawson Marshall Thurber (Red Notice) wrote and will direct the pilot episode.
Designed by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, Dungeons & Dragons was first published in 1974.
Deadline reminds, “Featuring humans, elves, orcs and other fantastical creatures engaging in wars, treasure hunts and campaigns, the Dungeons & Dragons game, one of Hasbro’s key franchise brands hailing from Wizards of the Coast, is overseen by a host, known as the Dungeon Master, and employs a signature multisided dice.”
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, meanwhile, arrives in theaters on March 31. No word on whether or not the movie, also from Paramount, will be connected to the series.
