Clive Barker Confirms “Nightbreed” Series Has Begun Production

For years there have been rumors of a “Nightbreed” series. Clive Barker himself has now revealed during a chat with Coming Soon that the series adaptation of his book is indeed on the way and that Trick ‘r Treat‘s Michael Dougherty is directing. It’s exciting, after 30 years, to go back to these characters and find out who’s still speaking to me, who wants their story told,” Barker told the site. “My tongue isn’t in my cheek when I say that as when I start a piece. It’s listening. The writing is a piece of listening. I’ve always said I was a journalist and what I was reporting on was the space between my ears.” “Nightbreed” centers on a group of underground dwelling half-human/half-monsters who seek refuge from the human world. A reluctant hero, struggling to cope with his new-found supernatural status attempts to lead the group as they are discovered and attacked by humans. Morga Creek’s James Robinson, David

Clive Barker Gives An Update On ‘Nightbreed’ Series

Clive Barker is as popular as ever. Not only is there a “Books of Blood” series in the works from director Josh Stolberg (Jigsaw), but there is also a “Nightbreed” series adaptation on its way. Barker recently gave an update on “Nightbreed” during a talk with the official Clive Barker website and revealed that a writer, director, and producers are already on board. Nightbreed is moving forward at quite a rate with a couple of very well-known directors showing a great deal of interest in it,” Barker told the site, “I am on board to provide mythologies and ideas and hopefully put the Barkerian weirdness on the material. At the moment, we’re putting the team together: we have a writer, director, producers and now that the New Year has begun we’ll all get together and start to plan the long-term narrative, not just the opening narrative which is what we’ve done so far.” He added, “I have the sense that,

‘Nightbreed’ The Series?

Back in 1990 Nightbreed, the adaption of Clive Barker’s 1988 novella Cabal, opened in theaters. Written and directed by Barker, the film became a cult classic. Barker has long complained about the fact that Nightbreed was watered down before being released in theaters. Rumors of a Nightbreed sequel have circulated for years, but we may actually be getting one, just not a movie. Deadline is saying that Morgan Creek, the producer of the original film, is currently developing a Nightbreed television series. Reportedly, Barker himself is involved creatively in the project. The original film centers on a troubled young man who is drawn to a mythical place called Midian where a variety of monsters are hiding from humanity. At the moment there is no other information available about the show, but as soon as we know more we’ll let you know. How do you feel about a Nightbreed series?
