Lev Grossman’s Arthurian Novel ‘The Bright Sword’ To Be Developed As Series By Lionsgate TV & 3 Arts
Lionsgate Television and 3 Arts Entertainment have preemptively acquired the rights to Lev Grossman’s novel The Bright Sword for series development.
The Bright Sword follows a gifted young knight named Collum who arrives at Camelot to compete for a spot on the Round Table, only to find that he’s too late. “My ambition with The Bright Sword was to completely reimagine the legend of King Arthur – to make it fresh, relevant and diverse, while at the same time hanging onto all the classic elements that fans like me love,” said Grossman. Stoff is executive producing several series, including Lionsgate Television’s The Serpent Queen and The Hunting Wives for Starz as well as Blue Eye Samurai for Netflix and Doc for Fox.
