Marvel\/Icon title Scarlet<\/a><\/em> is headed to television. It is currently being developed as a series at Cinemax.\u00a0<\/em>Marvel Comics<\/a> writer and creator Brian Michael Bendis<\/a>, who co-created Scarlett<\/em> with artist Alex Maleev, let the news slip\u00a0today that the property is being developed as a series\u00a0at HBO<\/a>. Deadline has confirmed that the project indeed is in development but at HBO sibling Cinemax.\u00a0Bendis, co-creator of the Marvel character Jessica Jones<\/em> and the long-running Marvel\/Icon title Powers<\/a><\/em>, both which have been adapted for television, spoke of the potential Scarlett<\/em>\u00a0TV series at the ATX Television Festival<\/a> in Austin.<\/p>\n

Speaking about his ongoing comics work, Bendis said \u201cI do a book called Scarlet\u00a0<\/em>which is soon to be announced also in our universe of television. Not announced yet, but HBO.\u201d Bendis was careful to add that the project is \u201cat the earliest stage,\u201d but that \u201cthe team around it\u2026will be announced as soon as all are on the same page.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

First published in 2010, the series follows a rebellious young Portland, Oregon woman named Scarlet Rue who ends up sparking a second American revolution. Drawing comparisons to (among other things) The Punisher<\/em> in tone, the series is known for confrontational politics and intense violence. As Bendis put it during today\u2019s panel, \u201cScarlet<\/em> is a list of things you can\u2019t get made. Here\u2019s a female lead who\u2019s killing cops because her world is broken.\u201d But, he says, \u201cwhen it was sold it was sold to people who were actively looking for that, so that put us in a good place. So stay tuned.\u201d<\/p>\n

Like Powers<\/em>, Scarlet<\/em> runs on Icon Comics, the creator-owned imprint Marvel launched in 2004 in part to bring Bendis and his Powers<\/em> co-creator Michael Avon Oeming and Kabuki<\/em> creator David Mack over from Image Comics. Among other titles, Icon is also the home of Mark Millar\u2019s Kick Ass<\/em> and The Secret Service<\/em>, both of which received film adaptations directed by Matthew Vaughn. In addition to his Icon titles, Brian Michael Bendis is also the writer behind some of the biggest titles in the mainstream of Marvel Comics, including Ultimate Spider-Man<\/em> and Age Of Ultron<\/em>, with numerous elements from his work making their way into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Cinemax is having early success with the series adaptation of Robert Kirkman\u2019s comics Outcast,<\/em> which recently launched to record ratings.<\/p>\n
