Funcom har afsløret, at Johnny Depps produktionsselskab Infinitum Nihil og G4C Innovations Gudrun Giddings har indgået i et partnerskab om at producere en stor TV-serie baseret på studiets MMO, The Secret World. Serien ligger sig tæt op af spillets historie, hvor et hold af agenter skal bekæmpe overnaturlige fjender på tværs af en række forskellige dimensioner.
Showets pilotepisode er blevet skrevet af James V. Hart (Hook, Dracula) og Jake Hart, sammen med Johnny Depp, Christi Dembrowski, Sam Sarkar og Gudrun Giddings.
"The Secret World universe is full of stories just waiting to be told. From secret societies to myths and legends that are all coming true, The Secret World captures some of humanity's greatest mysteries and asks "what if?". As the developers of The Secret World and Secret World Legends, we think it is a fantastic premise for a television show and one we hope will capture the collective imagination of the audience." fortæller Funcom.
"It is one of the most character-driven and well-developed games I know of. Hence it naturally lends itself to fantastical storylines with intriguing characters, a thrilling, and binge-worthy international TV show." siger Gudrun Giddings.
