In a TV generation where vampires, werewolves and zombies run rampant, why not throw in demons, too?
Showtime is adapting Cullen Bunn's comic book The Damned as a one-hour drama, Deadline.com reports.
Originally set in Prohibition-era Chicago, Showtime's take will have a more modern feel, though the show's protagonist, Eddie, a man who rises from the dead, will still go toe-to-toe with demonic mob bosses.
The series will be written by David Hayter (X-Men), with Warren Littlefield, Eric Gitter, Joe Nozemack and Andy Bourne also set to produce.
