WGN America Officially Orders Pilot for SCALPED, Based on the DC/Vertigo Comic

A couple years ago, WGN America put a television adaptation of Scalped, a DC/Vertigo comic book series, into development. Now, the network has finally ordered a pilot for the potential series, according to TV Line.

Banshee‘s Doug Jung will write the pilot for Scalped, as well as executive produce alongside DC Entertainment’s Geoff Johns. Scalped is described as “…a modern-day crime story set in the world of a Native American Indian reservation, exploring power, loyalty and spirituality in a community led by the ambitious Chief Lincoln Red Crow as he reckons with Dashiell Bad Horse, who has returned home after years away from the reservation.” 


Stay tuned for more Scalped news, including casting for the pilot’s lead roles, as we have it.
