David Cronenberg’s Scanners, the cult classic horror that you may know for its graphically exploding head, is being turned into a TV show.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the 1981 horror movie is being adapted for television in a new series that’s headed to HBO.
William Bridges, who co-wrote the Emmy award-winning USS Callister episode of Black Mirror, is the show’s writer and showrunner, with Yann Demange directing. The film’s original writer and director David Cronenberg is on board as executive producer.
