HBO is developing a drama series based on the Hasbro video game series “Baldur’s Gate.”
The project will be written and executive produced by Craig Mazin, who is best known for creating 2019’s “Chernobyl” and the video game adaptation series “The Last of Us,” both for HBO.
“After putting nearly 1000 hours into the incredible world of ‘Baldur’s Gate 3,’ it is a dream come true to be able to continue the story that Larian and Wizards of The Coast created,” Mazin said in a statement. “I am a devoted fan of ‘D&D’ and the brilliant way that Swen Vincke and his gifted team adapted it. I can’t wait to help bring ‘Baldur’s Gate’ and all of its incredible characters to life with as much respect and love as we can, and I’m deeply grateful to Gabe Marano and his team at Hasbro for entrusting me with this incredibly important property.”
