What We Do In The Shadows Is Getting A TV Show Spinoff
What We Do In The Shadows is brilliant. Taika Waititi's film is funny, personal and very cleverly done, and if you have ever liked anything with vampires in it, you have to check it out.
Speaking of, it has just been announced that the film is getting a television spinoff. This has been talked about for some time, but it seems it is finally going ahead report The Hollywood Reporter, with Waititi and Jermaine Clement being given $1 Million for six 30 minute episodes set in the world. It will follow two characters from the movie, police officers Karen and Mike as they go around New Zealand trying to keep all sorts of mythological creatures at bay.
This is excellent news, and I can't wait to see what is done with it. There is a lot of fertile ground here with which to play. I hope we see some of the film's characters return too, as they were just too much fun!
