‘The Boys’ Co-Creator Says Film Trilogy Version From Adam McKay Got Axed in Pre-MCU Hollywood, First Movie Was Fully Written: It Was ‘Really Cool Stuff’
"The Boys" is one of the biggest television shows on Prime Video, but it was originally planned as a film trilogy from director Adam McKay.
“ The Boys ” co-creator and illustrator Darick Robertson recently confirmed to Rolling Stone that an early attempt to bring the comic book series to life on screen was in a film trilogy from director Adam McKay. As reported by Rolling Stone: “Sony did buy the rights to the property, which went through a series of incarnations over a decade before ending up back in the hands of Rogen, Goldberg, and Kripke. For a while, director Adam McKay was trying to turn ‘The Boys’ into a trilogy of movies — the first one went as far as a finished screenplay and even demo animatics of scenes — but he wasn’t able to get it greenlighted in a pre-MCU Hollywood.”
