A Hitman TV series is being planned for Hulu, a recent report suggests.

Deadline reports that Hulu, in partnership with Fox 21 and John Wick creator Derek Kolstad, is developing a show based on the popular video game franchise.

Kolstad, who’s written the scripts for the first and the upcoming third John Wick films, will write the TV show’s pilot episode.

Kolstad will executive produce the Hitman TV series alongside Adrian Askarieh and Chuck Gordon.

We’ll have more on the Hitman series as more is known.

The Hitman IP belongs to io Interactive, who recently split with publisher Square Enix and is going it alone.
