Amazon is now developing a Conan drama serie.

 

Conan by Amazon

 

As a huge fan of Robert E. Howard, I'm pleased to read this...Hope the best for this one.

Quote

Condal admits to having a personal obsession with the material, which Sapochnik also has been a longtime fan of, leading to their collaboration on the project with the creative goal to return to the original Howard literary works and produce a series that is faithful to the spirit of his Conan character.

What worries me in that quote you posted is this: "...faithful to the spirit of his Conan character." (emphasis mine). Why can't it just be "faithful to his Conan character"? It seems to me that anytime anyone tries to develop something "in the spirit of" an established character/setting/franchise a few too many liberties wind up being taken, and not for the better. :unsure:

 

That said, I will remain cautiously optimistic about both this Conan series and the Middle-earth one also in development by Amazon until such time as concrete and accurate reports about their actual production begin to surface.

Let's hope they mean by "...faithful to the spirit of his Conan character." they they plan something like Darkhorse 2003 and not Marvel 1970 : )
