AMAZON'S FANTASY TV SERIES

The Gryphon will be a six episode series
|
After the success Netflix had with Barbarians,
Amazon is looking to find their own German hit series, so they are adapting
Wolfgang's Hohlbein's popular novel
THE GRYPHON (Der Grif) into a six episode show with
Erol Yesilkaya and
Sebastian Marka as show runners. On their way to adulthood, the three outsiders Mark, Memo and Becky come into contact with a fantastic world called the Black Tower. There, the Griffin, a world devouring monster, has been mercilessly plundering and subjugating all living creatures for centuries. And the three friends, of all people, seem destined to end this reign of terror. As you probably remember, his
Hagen von Tronje historical novel has also been set for adaptation.
