It's been a while since Electronic Arts released the pair of American McGee's Alive video games. The first game hit the market back in 2000 and was met with both commercial success as well as critical acclaim. The 2011 sequel had a handful of flaws that made it less desirable to mainstream audiences. Still, the game sold relatively well with enough demand and interest for a third game. Unfortunately, at that point, Electronic Arts just wasn't interested in the series anymore.
Fast forward to today and it appears that the story of American McGee's might live on in TV show form.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Radar Pictures has officially acquired the rights to make an American McGee's Alice with David Hayter at the helm. Unfortunately, the same report did not contain details about the attached broadcast network or streaming platform, as well as other important details.
David Hayter's name might ring a bell for Hideo Kojima fans. He's the English voice actor behind both Solid Snake and Naked Snake in Kojima's Metal Gear series, which many consider some of the auteur's best works. Later on, Hayter would make a name for himself with his work on the original X-Men movies and 2009's Watchmen. Hayter also has experience writing Netflix's Warrior Nun, among several others.
