docpop, (edited ) The Jim Henson Company is making a live-action adaptation of John Gardner's "Grendel", with Jeff Bridges playing Grendel, Dave Bautista playing Beowulf and Bryan Cranston playing King Hrothgar. https://variety.com/2024/film/news/grendel-jeff-bridges-bryan-cranston-jim-henson-company-1235998911/
As awesome as that sounds, I keep hoping we'll get an adaptation of Matt Wagner's "Grendel" comics. Particularly the Hunter Rose era. Apparently Netflix was working on one a few years ago but cancelled the project https://bleedingcool.com/tv/grendel-netflix-series-details-cancellation-crushing-matt-wagner/ #Grendel
