Exciting news for fans of the iconic tabletop game: Netflix is reportedly developing a live-action series set in the world of Dungeons & Dragons, specifically within the realm of The Forgotten Realms. This ambitious project is being helmed by Shawn Levy, the acclaimed director behind Deadpool & Wolverine, and Drew Crevello, known for his work on WeCrashed, who serves as the writer and showrunner. The Forgotten Realms, a staple setting in the D&D universe, has also been the backdrop for the recent film, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, and the critically acclaimed video game, Baldur’s Gate 3.
Deadline has described this potential series as one of Netflix’s most significant ventures into the fantasy genre to date. While the details are still under wraps, with both Netflix and Hasbro opting not to comment, it’s clear that this series is a major undertaking. According to Nellie Andreeva from Deadline, after extensive negotiations, the series is now set for further development at Netflix. If successful, this could pave the way for an expansive D&D universe on the streaming platform.
On a related note, while there's no official word yet on a sequel to the beloved film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, fans are eagerly awaiting any updates. Star Chris Pine expressed his enthusiasm for returning in a sequel, stating he was "pretty confident" it would happen back in November 2023. However, Paramount Pictures, the studio behind the film, has not confirmed any plans yet. Paramount CEO Brian Robbins has hinted at the possibility of a sequel but emphasized the need for a lower budget, stating, "We've got to figure out a way to make it for less."
In the interim, fans of the franchise can look forward to more D&D content, as Amazon’s Secret Level anthology series has included a D&D animation, keeping the spirit of the game alive across different media platforms.
