The fifth of November may have been last week, but “V for Vendetta” fans are getting a belated gift: a TV show based on the titular comic series\u00a0is in development at HBO, Variety<\/a> reports.<\/p>\n

Written by Alan Moore and illustrated by David Lloyd, “V for Vendetta” was first published as a graphic novel in 1982 before DC took over publishing rights in 1998. The series takes place in a British dystopia under the control of the fascist Norsefire party. The government is targeted by V, a mysterious anarchist in a Guy Fawkes mask, who seeks the help of a woman named Evey Hammond.<\/p>\n

From Warner Bros. Television, the series adaptation is reportedly being written by Pete Jackson, with James Gunn and Peter Safran executive-producing for DC Studios. Additional EPs include Ben Stephenson of Poison Pen and Leanne Klein of Wall to Wall Media.<\/p>\n

“V for Vendetta” was famously adapted into a feature-length film in 2006, directed by James McTeige from a script written by the Wachowskis. Hugo Weaving played the masked anarchist V, with Natalie Portman portraying Evey.<\/p>\n
