US TV Network Fox has ordered a pilot for a TV version of the Alan Moore-created comic book The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Fox have given a pilot commitment to a small screen adaptation of Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill’s League of Extraordinary Gentleman. Michael Green (whose credits include the likes of Green Lantern, Smallville and Heroes) is set to write and executive produce, while The Matrix‘s Erwin Stoff will also serve in the latter capacity. Moore and O’Neill won’t be producers on the series, and it’s safe to assume that the writer will have no role in this adaptation, although we should still probably expect him to have nothing but bad things to say if the past is any indication. How do you guys feel about this news? Sound off below and stay tuned to CBM for further updates.
