“Clue” is gearing up to make a move from the board to the small screen in two new TV shows, one scripted and one reality.
Sony Pictures Television and Hasbro Entertainment are shopping a scripted adaptation of the beloved murder mystery game, sources told Deadline on Thursday — just two days after Netflix greenlit a “Clue-based” reality competition .
“Forgetting Sarah Marshall” director and “Platonic” co-creator Nicholas Stoller will helm the scripted series, with “Wicked” executive producer Dana Fox serving as scribe and showrunner. No actors have yet to be attached to the project.
Hasbro and Sony have reportedly been leaning into the nostalgic iconography of the 1949 board game by sending pitch material to networks in a manila envelope, much like the case file used in the game.
