Lazarus (TV)

Just ran into this-


‘Lazarus’ Comic Book TV Series in Development

"In a dystopian near-future, government is a quaint concept, resources are coveted, and possession is 100% of the law. A handful of Families rule, jealously guarding what they have and exploiting the Waste who struggle to survive in their domains. Forever Carlyle defends her family's holdings through deception and force as their protector, their Lazarus. Shot dead defending the family home, Forever's day goes downhill from there…"

Lazarus is being made into a TV show, should be awesome. Any other fans here?

Can't wait! I love the comic book.

Haven't read the book, but it sounds like it will be worth checking out. Of course, that's also going to depend on what network picks it up.

Sounds like the writers will be able to retain creative control over it so thats good. First two people I thought of to play Forever were Eliza Dushku and Summer Glau- maybe cliche but I can't think of anyone else atm

I'd like Gina Carano. If she can't be Wonder Woman then she should do this.

Definitley give it a shot. It starts off slow moving but it develops a lot of different plot lines. I find the dynamics of the 16 families most interesting, its alot different than most post apocalyptic scenarios. I think the TV show will be able to flesh out a lot of backstory.

dude, Gina Carano might be perfect! didn't even think of her. I'm not exactly sure how old Forever is supposed to be, I think young like 19 maybe? Doesn't really matter tho, most high schoolers on tv are played by 30 year olds

I was thinking Willa Holland would be great if they ever killed her off on Arrow lol

I'd love to see Carano do this show because she could definitely pull off the fight scenes. Plus I think she looks like Forever--pretty and same muscular build.

true, and when the soldiers call her commander it would be believable. I haven't seen her in much since Haywire. Shame it flopped, it wasn't rocket science but I kinda liked it.
