SyFy and Warner Bros Television are teaming for a ‘Superman’ related series called “Krypton”, about the Man of Steel’s Grandfather, says Deadline.
Years before the Superman became a superhero, the House of El was shamed and ostracized. This series follows The Man of Steel’s grandfather as he brings hope and equality to Krypton, turning a planet in disarray into one worthy of giving birth to the greatest Super Hero ever known. The planet was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster and fist featured in a 1938 DC comic.
David S. Goyer (”Constantine”) and Ian Goldberg (”Once Upon A Time”) are producing, with Goldberg also writing the pilot.
