Syfy has ordered an adaptation of Rick Remender and Wes Craig’s DEADLY CLASS graphic novels to series.

“We’re committed to developing graphic novels for SYFY and have found a rich, compelling, truly unique world in DEADLY CLASS,” said Bill McGoldrick, President, Scripted Content, NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment in a statement. “Our producing partners expertly combined high school angst, 80s nostalgia and comic flair into a beautifully realized, visually arresting pilot that truly brings Rick and Wes’ acclaimed comic series to life.”

The drama stars Benedict Wong, Benjamin Wadsworth, Lana Condor, Maria Gabriela de Faria, Luke Tennie, Liam James, and Michel Duval.

Per Syfy, DEADLY CLASS is “[s]et in a dark, comic book world against the backdrop of late 80s counter culture. DEADLY CLASS follows a homeless teen recruited into a storied elite private school where the world’s top crime families send their next generations. Maintaining his moral code while surviving a ruthless curriculum, vicious social cliques and his own adolescent uncertainties soon proves to be vital. Based on the best-selling 2014 Image Comics graphic novel, DEADLY CLASS is a coming of age journey full of ancient mystery and teen angst.”

Syfy’s adaptation was penned by Remender and Miles Orion Feldsott. The Russo Brothers and Mike Larocca also serve as executive producers on the show. Sony Pictures Television and Universal Cable Productions are producing the drama.
