Best thread I've seen all day just because of this news, I am legitimately happy finding out Urban might come back. Actually looking forward to this show a shit ton, it has everything to succeed.
>easily conceptualized and variable atmosphere and setting
>good protag
>not a remake

>netflix
NO NO WHY
Great, Urban is back but Netflix? Why the fuck

NGL I'm more sprung than Boing! right now.

>Dredd
>Netflix
>Urban
>the people behind the film and Battlestar Galactica

That said Alex Garland was a big reason the film was as good as it was IMO but I'm still very hype.

>Dredd
Go on
>Urban
Continue
>Netflix
SOROS

>>94486902
Fuck off nigger. Not everything is your brain damage.

>>94486734
Urban is so based

>>94486845
>>94486902
Looking at the creative team there's nothing to worry about, plus we get all the episodes at once

>>94486939
>defending George Soros

Biggest risk is they make him a straight-up action hero and don't work the satire/dystopia angle. And this'll end up being compared to Bright, I can only imagine the hot takes.

Biggest plus is you genuinely get to build a supporting cast in a TV series. We could get Giant and his illicit relationship building into Giant Jr. We could get Rico, Hershey, Beeny, McGruder.

what about olivia thirlby?

>>94486964
>ranting about meaningless, tired political arguments in an unrelated thread on an unrelated board
KYS cunt.

>>94486734
I'm glad Karl Urban is open to coming back. Hopefully we'll get confirmation soon.

As for Netflix, I'll easily take them over a cable channel any day. While a part of me was hoping for maybe HBO or Starz, Netflix is a far better home for Dredd than FX or AMC, or god forbid Syfy.

>>94486982
All I ask for is Antje Traue as Hershey

And who will play best girl?

>>94486734
2000ad already said no Urban, nothing in that article is conformation

>>94487031
>>94487002
She's mostly done indie shit since the Dredd movie, who knows?

>>94487066
but Karl Urban himself is confirming that talks have/are taking place for him to return

We gotta give her role to an older qt considering Urban's 40-something already

Susan Egan and Evengleon Lilly certainly look the part

From what i'm seeing so far, Netflix will definitely have my sub when it comes out. Hopefully it continues on a solid road.

>>94487127
Hershey is quite a bit younger than Dredd.

>>94487066
>comicbook company
>havin any word to say in the live-action adaptation of their source-material

cute

When the hell was it ever confirmed Netflix was doing picking this up? Last I heard, they were still looking.

>>94487104
No nigga. he is not.
Urban has apparently been in "talks" for a continuation since as far back as 2014

>>94487007
he can't kill himself, nobody programmed him to do it

>>94487202
adding to that, his "talks" are in effect the same thing that the Rock has been saying so many times in terms of playing BA

>>94487202
>Said Urban, "I am in discussions with them about that. I told them that if they write the material and give Dredd something to do and give him a function, I will be there. I would love to."
>Said Urban, "I am in discussions with them about that.

Urban himself is literally confirming he is in talks to return. Straight from the source. Whether or not it happens remains to be seen, but he IS in talks

>>94487066
Yeah, can I get a source on that?
Preferably one that's not from a unnamed 'inside source'

Sadly there's no picture of her with a bob

>>94487171
She ages like milk after the vampire / time travel arc though

>>94487277
ask them yourself, they've said the same thing repeatedly

>>94487262
>I am in discussions
that's not conformation,just wishful thinking on your part

>>94487446
>that's not conformation,just wishful thinking on your part

Anon, no where once did I say he was confirmed to star in the show. Even OP's article only mentions he is in talks.

Its a confirmation of talks, not a confirmation of casting.

>>94487202
Those weren't talks. He was campaigning with the fans for the sequel but big money didn't care.

The netflix thing actually has an executive producer for megacity one, Brian Jenkins, so, obviously this is more closer to realisation.

>>94487599
not hard enough clearly

When did Netflix pick it up?

>people are mad its on netflix

y tho? Thats probably the only place to go if you want full creative control over your own show.

>>94487596
no worries

>>94487007
>spending money on the propaganda machine
Wew lad

>>94487611
Yeah, I got tired

>>94487644
I don't trust Netflix since Unfortunate Events

>>94487644
George Soros owns so much Netflix stock and everything since has been left wing propaganda. There's a whole scene in Ozark with the characters sitting around talking about how much they miss Obama

>>94486902
Dredd has always been a satirical spoof on fascism. There is literally nothing that could be done to change that.

>>94487694
>everything since has been left wing propaganda
Which explains why it's so famous.

people shouldn't get their hopes up for this shit, Dredd would need a fantastic budget unless the whole thing was set in the Cursed Earth.

Just look at shit like the flash or jessica jones.

That said i would adore a proper adaptation of "The Return of Rico".

>>94487585
no, other guy is right there have been constant articles for years saying Urban was returning to Dredd.

FUCK YES

I just hope it doesn't have marvel-tier budgets

>>94487644
sure sure, just look at how well Daredevil did in only one season.

Never seen such a strong yet fast decline in quality in only the opening episode.

Still, hopes for this and the new Deilman i guess

>>94486845
What's the alternative, you contrarian little shit?
NBC?

>>94486734

But are they bringing the rookie back?

I know she's on popular Amazon show but I figured that would be a more minor role in season 2.

She has the time

>>94487819
CW

>>94487819

Please no. They couldn't even revive Heroes.

>>94487843
Ew. No. I want Dredd hauling about punching creeps. Not a damned teen drama. Dredd shouldn't ever have sex. EVER, At least willingly while conscious.

Then the perp gets 2 life terms in the cubes for assaulting a Judge. Creep. Child will be put into protective services upon delivery

Please delete this and never say that ever again, the last thing we need is a Dredd show filled with tween love drama

>>94486819
Bad news, he has been saying since since Dredd first came out. Nothing will come of this and the cycle will repeat.

>>94487189
Except that it's actually Rebellion, the parent company of 2000ad, that's fronting the money for the development of the show.

You know shit.

>>94487819
SyFy is not a bad idea
The best alternative would be Starz

>>94487415
That's women for ya.

>>94487907
We already kind of had that storyline except there was no rape and Rico was the one who had sex and the kid.

Now Dredd still hauls and punches bad guys, same old thing except maybe in Christmas he'll visit his niece and have an awkward evening and he'll scare off her dates.

While we're in a Dredd thread, does anyone know of any good storage boxes for 2000AD progs and Megazines? I got a few for some comics from Volstor, pic related, and they're perfect, but I can't find anything similar for Magazine cut issues as I think Volstor don't sell products anymore. It doesn't have to be the same brand, but anything with a slot for a spine and cover design would be great. Thanks in advance
