Certainly sounds like a recipe to mix beautiful cinematography with some good character development, if they can get it right.

Terry Brooks' Shannara In Development As MTV Series From Jon Favreau And Smallville Creators
They're the highest-grossing fantasy books that have yet to be adapted for screen, but that's all about to change. Deadline reports Terry Brooks' Shannara is headed for MTV – home of Teen Wolf – and Jon Favreau, along with Smallville creators Miles Millar and Al Gough are overseeing it.
Brooks' epic fantasy series, which consists of 25 books so far, with at least 4 more on the way, follows – as far as I am understanding this correctly – the Shannara family in the Four Lands, which is earth long after it's been destroyed by a nuclear holocaust called the Great Wars. Civilization has reverted back to a Medieval-like society wherein magic reappeared to "supplement science."
Fantasy storytelling, man. The series will be based on the second book in the original trilogy, The Elfstones Of Shannara, which is a fan favorite and which luckily has plenty of young hotties and romance to keep MTV's target audience interested.
