And it’s only creative people because creative people are always leaning in to figure out how to say yes. There will be business obstacles, I’m sure, later, but in that room it’s just green fields and blue skies and what if. That has led to a lot of really great collaborations. We’ve just wrapped up Dear White People which was a really good experience, Blindspotting is coming up, American Psycho is in development. We’re always exploring what we can do in television with something like the Saw franchise, so that’s a conversation.

Obviously no official release or start date as of yet, but we'll keep you updated!

But what do you guys think? You fans of these franchises (which American Psycho counts as, as there was a sequel that came out in 2002 starring Mila Kunis and William Shatner)? If so, would you check out a series based on them? Either way, sound off below!
