Conan TV Series
Amazon has cancelled the Conan TV series that was in development.
This change has been attributed to a change in management at Amazon.
The Conan series project had Colony co-creator Ryan Condal, Game of Thrones director Miguel Sapochnik, and Fargo and The Handmaid’s Tale executive producer Warren Littlefield on board, along with Pathfinder Media and Endeavor Content.
Condal’s Conan aimed to retell the classic story by returning to Howard’s literary origins. This treatment finds the title character driven out of his tribal homelands and forced to wander a dangerous world while searching for purpose in a land that sees him as nothing more than a mindless savage.
The show's pilot episode was to adapt The Frost-Giant's Daughter, chronologically the earliest story of Conan's life. The ambition of the series was to adapt all of the REH Conan stories, interspersed with new material forming a serial element to better connect the stories together. The ultimate goal was to cover all of Conan's life up to his reign as King of Aquilonia.
