Looks like HBO maybe be giving Utopia, the American adaptation of British drama series, another go. Per Production Weekly, HBO has ordered another iteration of the show which is set to go in production this year.



HBO previously tried to adapt the British comedy by giving the project from David Fincher a straight to series order in 2014. But the project was ultimately cancelled a year later because of budgetary issues before it went into production.



According to Production Weekly, the production team from the 2014 version again seems to be involved in the project including David Fincher and Gillian Flynn. The show will go into production in October and production will last till May of next year.



The show revolves around the die-hard fans of an iconic underground graphic novel who are suddenly launched into their own pop-culture thriller when they learn that the author has secretly written a sequel. Unfortunately, the new manuscript is much more than just a book and those on the hunt for it suddenly find themselves in a game of shifting loyalties, conspiracy and shocking twists as the true meaning of the book is slowly revealed.
