The Boysshowrunner Eric Kripke may already have a hugely successful comic book adaptation under his wing, but that hasn’t stopped him looking for another. The creator of the Prime Video superhero hit has shared his desire to adapt Saga, a comic one described as “Star Wars meets Game of Thrones” in the official solicitations.
In a recent interview withThe Hollywood Reporter, he was asked about his dream project. “Saga, by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples,” he told the publication. “I’m obsessed with it. So insane and so grounded at the same time. Brian and Fiona, call me!”
That’s not all either, the Supernatural creator then took toTwitterto nail in his point, writing: “Mostly this is my desperate campaign to get Brian K. Vaughn & @fionastaples to let me have the rights to #Saga. I’ll treat your baby well!”
After seeing what he’s managed to do with The Boys, we’d love to see what Kripke would do with Saga, especially on an epic scale. We’re not the only ones either as Jack Quaid, who plays Hughie in The Boys, wrote onTwitter: “LOVE the idea of you adapting #Saga.”
In the meantime, Kripke is busy withThe Boys season 4, which has justgot a new trailer. The series, which will pick up in the aftermath of theGen V season 1 finale, sees democracy on the brink as Homelander and Billy Butcher return.
