a) es traut sind endlich mal jemand mal an eine vollwertige Adaption heran
und
b) toll, dass man Schoenbrun ("We’re All Going to the World’s Fair" und "I Saw the TV Glow") diese Chance gibt!
Ein Film wäre mir zwar lieber gewesen - aber ich bin sehr gespannt.
Den 2010er Kurzfilm von Rupert Sanders mochte ich auf jeden Fall schonmal:

Over a span of ten years, Charles Burns wrote and illustrated a twelve issue comic book series titled Black Hole. The twelve issues were collected in graphic novel form in 2005, and a cinematic adaptation of the story has been in development hell ever since. In 2006, it was announced that Alexandre Aja would be directing a film adaptation, working from a screenplay by Roger Avary and Neil Gaiman. Aja soon moved on, and when David Fincher signed on to direct the film in 2008, Avary and Gaiman also left the project, not interested in going through an arduous process with the new director. Fincher remained attached to Black Hole for several years, but eventually let it slip out of his grasp. Eight years ago, Rick Famuyiwa was brought on to write and direct the adaptation… but Famuyiwa couldn’t get it into production, either. Now, Deadline reports that the Netflix streaming service is teaming with We’re All Going to the World’s Fair and I Saw the TV Glow filmmaker Jane Schoenbrun to bring Black Hole to the screen as a TV series.
Netflix landed the Black Hole rights by coming out the winner of a bidding war over the property and have given Schoenbrun’s take on the material a straight-to-series order. Schoenbrun will be writing and directing the show. Here’s the description: There’s an old myth that haunts the seemingly perfect small town of Roosevelt: if you have sex too young, you’ll contract the “bug,” a virus that literally turns you into a “monster” from your worst nightmares. Absurd, right? That’s what Chris always assumed, until, after one reckless night at the beginning of senior year, she finds herself infected. Now she’ll be cast out to the woods to live with the other infected, where a chilling, new threat emerges: a serial killer who’s hunting them one-by-one.
