Netflix Cancels Plans for a Series Based on “Grendel”
According to a recent report by Deadline, Netflix has decided to cancel its planned Grendel series based on the Dark Horse comics of the same name.
Now that Netflix has decided to cancel the show, its creators are free to look for other outlets to air the show.
The show was supposed to be run by Andrew Dabb (Supernatural), who was also slated to write and produce for the series. The order originated from Netflix’s first-look arrangement with Dark Horse Entertainment, the company responsible for the successful Netflix series The Umbrella Academy and other shows.
Hunter Rose is a famous author by day, but at night he changes identities and becomes Grendel, an assassin out to exact revenge for the death of a loved one by fighting his way through New York City’s criminal underbelly. The first issue of the comic book came out in 1982, and the series is still going strong and has spawned numerous offshoots.

Finland is also home to Netflix’s “world-class” gaming studio
Netflix has been acquiring a variety of video games, both large and little, to add to its library. The Helsinki, Finland studio will be the site of the streaming service’s development of “delightful and highly engaging unique games.”
The move was confirmed by Amir Rahimi, Netflix’s VP of Game Studios.
During 2014, Marko Lastikka, the studio’s director, contributed to SimCity: BuildIt. Rahimi has hinted that the team’s output will be different from that of Netflix’s three other teams, whose games have been received positively so far. Each team has its own “strengths and key areas,” he says.
According to Rahimi, Netflix choose workers from Finland for their competence. Next Games, headquartered in Helsinki, was another company that Netflix acquired. Finland is home to many thriving mobile game studios, such as Supercell and Rovio Entertainment (Angry Birds). Returnal, a PlayStation 5 game released in 2021, was developed by the studio known for games like Max Payne, Alan Wake, and Control, along with Housemarque.

American Jesus gets adaptation as El Elegido in Netflix
Netflix is still a fan of Mark Millar, despite the fact that Jupiter’s Legacy and Supercrooks did not perform as well as expected.
Starring in El Elegido is Tenoch Huerta, Marvel’s new Submariner. He’ll play the lead role in a film about a preteen who comes to the realization that he is the Messiah. Negatives? The child is responsible for making pre-Armageddon preparations.
El Elegido means “The Selected” in Spanish. In comparison to the first title, this one is less divisive. (Considering the preacher aired on free TV, anything goes.)
Summary of the TV show: “Jodie, a 12-year-old child in Baja California, learns he possesses Jesus-like skills, including the ability to turn water into wine, make the lame walk, and revive the dead! Jodie wants to save the world in order to please the woman he loves and to stand up to his bullies, but the evangelical and Yaqu leaders have other plans. Once Jodie learns the truth about who he is, everything changes.
