The Nemesis Saga novels from Jeremy Robinson are headed to the small screen, Deadline reports this afternoon, with Chad Stahelski (all three John Wick movies) on board to direct!
From Sony TV and Original Film, the series is titled “Project Nemesis.” The project is based on the first novel in the Nemesis Saga, which to date includes six different novels.
Deadline details, “Project Nemesis, based on Robinson’s kaiju thriller, delivers the destruction common in the kaiju genre, but not without sacrificing character.
“When the DNA of Nemesis, the Greek goddess of vengeance, is merged with that of Maigo, a murdered little girl, the resulting trauma-fueled kaiju rampages from the backwoods of Maine to the streets of Boston in search of their killer.
“Heading up the response to this otherworldly threat is Jon Hudson, a sarcastic DHS agent whose leadership of the agency’s Paranormal division was a joke—until now.”
Stahelski will direct and executive produce the series. He said in a statement shared by Deadline, “I can’t say how excited I am to help bring Jeremy Robinson’s Project Nemesis to the screen. From the first moment I started reading it, I was hooked. This amazing book series has everything I love about the genre: martial arts, action, great characters, and of course, Kaiju!”
