The anthology series from executive producer Greg Berlanti that was to showcase lesser-known characters from the DC Universe, HBO Max confirmed to THR. Filmmaker Kevin Smith, who was set to direct and co-write an episode of the series, said on his Hollywood Babble-On podcast that the show was indeed dead.
Strange Adventures was first published between either August or September 1950, according to the cover date, and published continuously until November 1973. It saw some relaunches in the late 2000s’, but had recent success in 2020 with a mini-series from Tom King, Mitch Gerads, and Doc Shaner.
While the TV series never made it past the developmental phase, sources told THR that the decision to move on from the project was quietly made months ago. So it isn’t related to the recent tax write-down moves by WBD.
“[Dropping Strange Adventures] kind of made sense to me,” Smith said on the podcast. “Nobody necessarily knows these characters, and it sounded like an expensive show.”
Other DC shows under the Berlanti umbrella, including the final season of The Flash, Season 3 of Superman & Lois, and newcomer Gotham Knights at The CW, are also moving ahead as planned.
