[edit] Story
The synopsis is as follows: The first story in the upcoming 'Wolverine and the X-Men' animated series will likely be a three-part episode. Greg Johnson, who wrote all four of Marvel's direct-to-DVD animated films, is working on development of the series. "At this point, the series will open with a three-parter as the pilot, of which I'm currently writing," Johnson said. "It's like a little movie."
[edit] Progress
Marvel's mutants could be returning to the small screen as early as fall 2008.
"We are in pre-production," Rollman said. "We have a nice batch of scripts that are done. It's a really neat new take on the X-Men."
Is it tough to do the X-Men again, following Fox Kids' X-Men and Kids' WB!'s X-Men: Evolution?
"I wouldn't say it's tough, I would say it's fun," Rollman said. "There's so much to do with them. Yeah, there's been two series that have been done, but there's plenty of room in this world. The point of view in this one, since it's called Wolverine and the X-Men, has quite a different twist to it as the sort of base story line."
Greg Johnson, who wrote the first four Marvel/Lionsgate animated films and was a story editor on X-Men: Evolution, is story editor.
Rollman said the series hasn't been sold to a network yet.[1]
[edit] Directors
Chuck Patton and Chris Prynoski are to direct the series.
