Seth Rogen planning TV Series for The Boys

Seth Rogen is trying to mount a TV version of Garth Ennis’ comic The Boys according to BirthMoviesDeath. Rogen and his regular work partner Evan Goldberg are currently looking for cable networks to take on the project.

The Boys is about a world where superheroes are a widely-mistrusted annoyance – “absolute scum” in Ennis’ own words – leading to the creation of the only marginally preferable anti-cape vigilante group of the title.

Rogen is currently absorbed in his TV adaptation of Preacher which is set to air on AMC network next year but cable would appear to be the most likely way to go for The Boys.
