The Alan Wake series is not cancelled.
Developed over four years by Contradiction Films and Remedy Entertainment with Peter Calloway (Cloak and Dagger, Legion, Under the Dome) as showrunner and writer, and game director Sam Lake as executive producer, the television series Alan Wake found a partner to make the project materialize: “AMC, the wonderful home of absolutely brilliant television series, has bought the rights. We don’t have much more to share at this time, but we’ll be sure to let you know when we have something to announce. ”
Alan Wake on AMC is the latest example of the TV world’s growing interest in video games. HBO is preparing The Last Of Us, Peacock will take on Twisted Metal, and Amazon is adapting God of War, Fallout and Mass Effect with Prime Video.
