Syfy Films has acquired the screen rights to “Wild Cards”, a superhero anthology edited, co-created and co-written by George R.R. Martin. Martin’s fantasy series “Game of Thrones” is a huge success for HBO.
Melinda Snodgrass, one of the co-creators and co-writers of Game of Thrones, has been tapped to pen the screenplay for the project. Snodgrass, who also worked on Star Trek: The Next Generation, will executive produce with Martin.
Wild Cards is a series of books and stories set in a shared universe where an alien virus has been unleashed over New York City. Those who survived were turned into either a class of beings named Jokers, mostly deformed creatures, (or more rarely) Aces, who have special powers.
