"Seth Rogen, Matt Tolmach and David F. Sandberg have teamed up to adapt the Rick Remender-written comic Fear Agent as a series.
Amazon has won a competitive bidding war to pick up rights to the title, beating out Peacock, HBO Max and TNT, according to sources.
Sandberg, who directed Shazam!and Annabelle: Creation, is on board to helm and executive produce while rising scribe Mattson Tomlin, who co-wrote Robert Pattinson-led The Batman, will pen the pilot.
Rogen and his Point Grey Productions partners Evan Goldberg and James Weaver are exec producing with Tolmach and David Manpearl. The group previously teamed for the sci-fi comedy Future Man that streamed on Hulu. Tolmach identified the title 10 years ago, trying to find the best way into the ambitious and offbeat comic.
Remender and Agent co-creator Tony Moore, who drew the series, are also exec producing as is Lotta Losten. Josh Fagen is overseeing for Point Grey.
The logline is thus: Interstellar invaders. Time travel. Clones of clones of clones, and lots of whiskey. Whether he’s battling the scourge of space, going back in time to stop the alien invasion that changed Earth forever, or winning his ex-wife back, there’s nothing that Heath Huston won’t do to try to right the wrongs and get his family back. He is, after all, the last Fear Agent."
