"\nNetflix has officially ordered a straight-to-series adaptation of the graphic novels \u201cBlack Hole\u201d by Charles Burns, Variety has learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe project is a collaboration between New Regency and Netflix, with New Regency co-producing the series. Jane Schoenbrun is attached to develop the adaptation for television and will also direct. Plan B is set to serve as an executive producer, alongside Burns, Erin Levy, Yariv Milchan, Arnon Milchan, Natalie Lehmann, and Laura Delahaye for New Regency.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAccording to the official logline:\u201cThere\u2019s an old myth that haunts the seemingly perfect small town of Roosevelt: if you have sex too young, you\u2019ll contract the \u2018bug,\u2019 a virus that transforms you into a \u2018monster\u2019 from your worst nightmares. That\u2019s what Chris believed\u2014until, after a reckless night at the start of senior year, she becomes infected. Now, she\u2019s cast out into the woods to live with others who are infected, where a new, terrifying threat emerges: a serial killer targeting them one by one.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis marks the first television adaptation of \u201cBlack Hole,\u201d although multiple studios and creative teams previously attempted to develop a film version, none of which came to fruition. The most recent effort was in 2018, when director Rick Famuyiwa, known for \u201cDope,\u201d was set to write and direct a film produced by New Regency and Plan B. The graphic novels, originally published between 1995 and 2005, were collected in a single edition in 2005.<\/p>\n\n\n\nJane Schoenbrun recently wrote and directed the A24 film \u201cI Saw the TV Glow,\u201d which premiered at Sundance in 2024. They are also known for \u201cWe\u2019re All Going to the World\u2019s Fair\u201d and the upcoming \u201cTeenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma,\u201d another Plan B project. Schoenbrun is represented by CAA, Entertainment 360, and Jackoway Austen Tyerman.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEmail: neill@outloudculture.com<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nSocials:\u00a0@frazer.live<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n@neill.outloud<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"
