The Alan Wake TV series is not cancelled.
In development for four years by Contradiction Films and Remedy Entertainment with Peter Calloway (Cloak and Dagger, Legion, Under the Dome) as showrunner and screenwriter and game director Sam Lake as executive producer, the television series Alan Wake found a partner to make the project a reality: “AMC, the wonderful home of absolutely awesome TV series, has bought the rights. We don’t have anything more to share at this time, but we’ll be sure to let you know when there’s something to announce.”
AMC’s Alan Wake series is the latest example of the television world’s growing interest in video games. The Last Of Us is in preparation at HBO, Peacock will tackle Twisted Metal while Amazon will adapt God of War, Fallout and Mass Effect with Prime Video.
