Hi guys, I read this forum regularly but this is my first time posting. I'm a huge MK fan and want to pee my pants upon finding any information I can on the television series. I emailed Jon Cooksey yesterday (10/6/08) just to see if he can give me any hope that the series is still alive and well. He responded..and within a day! Though this isn't really new info to you, maybe it can offer a glimmer of hope: Hi Adam, Nope, not dead at all. We’ve developed 6 scripts for the first season, and are talking to people in the US now about a US sale (we already have a buyer for the series in Canada). Could be some good news on that within a month or two. It’ll be a great series! Jon --Previous Message-- : Much to my surprise I just recieved this email : resonse from Jon Cooksey: : : Hi John, : : : : Sorry for the delayed response – I’ve been : buried and I also had to check with Marvel : to see what the secrecy level is about the : series, and (not surprisingly) it’s high : (same as the movies), partly because the : series is still in development, and partly : because we want to protect all the : surprises! So all I can tell you at this : point is that I was brought on last year to : write a pilot and bible, and develop some : additional scripts with a few other writers, : one of whom is a lifelong Moon Knight : fanatic (I grew up a comic book fan too, but : didn’t discover MK till later). We’ve all : had a great time working on the scripts, and : I love the storylines we’ve worked out for : the episodes and the series as a whole. : More than that I can’t say without starting : to give stuff away! : : : : MK fans in the US won’t know the last series : I did, “The Collector”, at least until it : sells down there (hopefully this year or : next), though you’ve found the site. MK : would be done with the same production team, : and JB Sugar and I are tentatively planning : to head down to LA in August to work with : Marvel on selling the series for US : broadcast. : : : : So much more I’d like to talk about but it : will have to wait till later stages. Thanks : for writing, and keep in touch! : : : : Jon : : : : --Previous Message-- : My firewall blocked that link for some : reason, : but Cooksey's blog on his : "Collector" site does indicate : that they have completed scripts for as many : as six MK episodes. His last post was from : December, but he said that they would be : shopping the show around to networks in the : states during this summer. I sent an email : to the staff of the Collector asking them to : come on to our humble message board and : throw us a bone since we've been in the dark : for 2 years. I'm not sure that we should : expect a response. : : This thing may not be dead after all. : : http://www.thecollectortv.com/14.html : : (Included a link to Cooksey's Collector site : and blog) : : : --Previous Message-- : Jon Cooksey who is working on the new ReBoot : TV series confirms that he is also in : development of Moon Knight. : : : : : : :
