Last week, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker director J.J. Abrams was revealed to be working on an untitled HBO Max drama set in the Justice League Dark universe in addition to two other series, titled Duster and Overlook. The three projects are being developed as part of a deal between Abrams’ production company Bad Robot and the AT&T-owned WarnerMedia.
Other previously-announced projects being developed for WarnerMedia’s HBO Max include a Dune spin-off series centered on an order of women known as the Bene Gesserit, with Blade Runner 2049 helmer Denis Villeneuve directing the pilot episode. Furthermore, HBO Max will include Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai, an animated prequel series revealing the origins of the cute but dangerous creatures.
