Push Shove

Summit Entertainment and E1 are developing a TV series based on the 2009 sci-fi thriller flick Push says Variety.



The story centres on people with paranormal powers who band together to take down a corrupt government agency. The show will expand the universe seen in the film rather than serve as a flat out remake.

Wow! The suits must be more desperate for ad revenue than I thought...

The Paul McGuigan-directed film only made a modest $48 million worldwide.

The film was also seen by many as a rip-off of TV's Heroes a show that has plummeted the ground in terms of both quality and ratings in its own right

David Hayter, the scripter behind the Watchmen film and X-Men/X2 will script the pilot and produce with Benedict Carver, Noreen Halpern and John Morayniss.

No network is yet attached.
