Last year it looked like a TV series adaptation of Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodríguez‘s comic book series Locke & Key was finally going to happen, with Hulu ordering a pilot episode and Doctor Strange and Sinister director Scott Derrickson set to helm that episode. Derrickson eventually dropped out due to scheduling issues and IT and Mama director Andy Muschietti stepped in.

For whatever reasons, Hulu made the surprising decision to pass on the series. The second time that a series based on the comic looked like it was happening and then didn’t. The other being on Fox years ago. But thankfully fans didn’t have to wait nearly as long this time for the show to find a new home. It’s been announced that Netflix has picked up the show. And they’re skipping that pesky pilot episode step and jumping straight to a full-series order.

A movie adaptation of In the Tall Grass, a novella collaboration between father and son Stephen King and Joe Hill, is coming to Netflix.

Westworld and X-Men star James Marsden is currently in negotiations to star in the adaptation, which will be directed by Vincenzo Natali, who’s best known for 1997’s Cube and 2009’s Splice. Natali also directed the pilot episode for the now homeless Tremors TV series starring Kevin Bacon.

AMC has announced that they’ve ordered 10 episodes of NOS4A2, a supernatural horror series based on author Joe Hill‘s novel of the same name.

The series was created by Jami O’Brien (Fear The Walking Dead, Hell On Wheels), who will also serve as showrunner, and Hill will be involved as an executive producer.

You can find a description of the story and quotes from Hill and O’Brien below.
