Neil Gaiman’s ‘Anansi Boys’ Ordered to Series at Amazon

“Anansi Boys as a TV series has been a long time coming…we needed a lead director with the craft and vision of Hanelle Culpepper, we needed the creative and technical wizardry of Douglas Mackinnon, and we needed the rest of the amazing talents that nobody knows about yet. We are trying to make a new kind of show with Anansi Boys, and to break ground with it to make something that celebrates and rejoices in diversity both in front of and behind the camera.” – Neil Gaiman, The Hollywood Reporter
