It’s high time that The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen make their return to the screen, be it big or small, and Fox seems to be in agreement with us. Will you be seeing the gang on your TV soon? Read on for details.

According to Deadline, Fox today gave a put pilot commitment to “League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.” The one-hour drama is based on comic guru Alan Moore and illustrator Kevin O’Neill’s multi-volume series featuring Nemo, Allan Quatermain, Dracula’s Mina Harker, the Invisible Man, and Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde.

The Victorian Era-based series from the Watchmen and V For Vendetta creator was first published in 1999 with subsequent volumes moving through time to the contemporary UK. Like with the 2009 Watchmen film, Moore is not involved in this project, and neither is O’Neill. Michael Green will serve as executive producer and showrunner for the 20th Century Fox TV produced project with Erwin Stoff also executive producing.
