“Wednesday” creators Al Gough and Miles Millar are turning Boom Studios’ horror-fantasy comic Grim into an adult animated series for Netflix, Deadline reports.
Gough and Millar are developing the project alongside “Love, Death + Robots” supervising director Jennifer Yuh Nelson.
Created by writer Stephanie Philips and artist Flaviano, Grim is a character-driven supernatural saga following Jessica Harrow, a newly recruited Reaper tasked with ferrying souls to the afterlife.
Unlike her fellow Reapers, Jessica has no memory of her death or life before. Her search for answers pulls her deeper into the unseen architecture of the afterlife, revealing hidden forces, cosmic secrets, and her shocking personal connection to Death itself.
Millar and Gough executive produce for Millar/Gough Ink alongside the company’s Head of Film Aaron Schmidt and Yuh Nelson. Stephen Christy and Adam Yoelin executive produce for Boom! Studios, with Mette Norkjaer co-executive producing. Phillips and Flaviano also co-executive produce.
Grim debuted in 2022 and quickly became one of the highest-selling launches in Boom Studios history. Its 25-issue run concludes this month.
In addition to “Wednesday,” Gough and Millar’s writing credits include Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, I Am Number Four, and “Smallville.”
