After more than a year and a half of development, eOne recently started shopping its high-profile Dungeons & Dragons live-action TV series. Shepherded by Red Notice filmmaker Rawson Marshall Thurber, it is based on Hasbro’s wildly popular fantasy role-playing game franchise.
The series was conceived as eOne’s priciest, largest-scope TV project ever, a series that would demonstrate the full potential of Hasbro’s 2019 acquisition of the indie film and TV studio. It started garnering bids and all seemed to be going smoothly — until the process was interrupted Thursday by the toymaker’s announcement that it plans to sell eOne’s film and TV businesses.
