THOR, MUTANT X TELEVISION SHOWS
Live-action television shows based on Marvel Comics' Thor and Mutant X are both in development.
"We are interviewing show-runners and we are working on Thor," Marvel's Avi Arad said. "We are also working very hard on Mutant X."
Thor is part of Marvel's 15-character agreement with Artisan Entertainment. Already, both Tyler Mane, who played Sabretooth in X-Men, and Dolph Lundgren, who starred in The Punisher, have expressed interest in playing Thor.
"It's all rumors. We are not at the casting stage," Arad said. "I'm not being cagey. It's just too early. All tall, good-looking actors should be interested in this one."
Mutant X will be made in conjunction with Tribune Entertainment. "It will be syndicated, with probably a cable run first," Arad said.
Details of the show are still very sketchy.
"It's a whole new generation, you'll see," Arad said. "It's something very unique in live-action."
