Noah Hawley (<em>Fargo<\/em>, <em>Bones<\/em>) will write the pilot and serve as an executive producer alongside Lauren Shuler Donner (<em>X-Men: Days of Future Past<\/em>, <em>The Wolverine<\/em>), Bryan Singer (<em>X-Men: Days of Future Past<\/em>), Simon Kinberg (<em>X-Men: Days of Future Past<\/em>, <em>The Martian<\/em>), Jeph Loeb (<em>Marvel&rsquo;s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.<\/em>, <em>Marvel&#039;s Daredevil<\/em>), Jim Chory (<em>Marvel&rsquo;s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.<\/em>, <em>Marvel&#039;s Daredevil<\/em>) and John Cameron (<em>Fargo<\/em>, <em>The Big Lebowski<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;<em>Legion<\/em> is just the sort of ambitious story that Noah excels at,&rdquo; said Nick Grad, co-president of original programming at FX Networks and FX Productions. &ldquo;His adaption of <em>Fargo<\/em> for television was one of the most acclaimed television events in recent memory. It&rsquo;s also an honor to partner with Marvel on <em>Legion<\/em> and to enlist such an accomplished team of executive producers to create this pilot.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tDonner, Singer, Kinberg, Loeb and Chory will also executive produce FOX&#039;s&nbsp;<em>Hellfire<\/em>, along with showrunners Evan Katz and Manny Coto. The 20th Century Fox Television co-production will center on a young Special Agent who learns that a power-hungry woman with extraordinary abilities is working with a clandestine society of millionaires to take over the world. Patrick McKay and JD Payne are writing the script.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;We are thrilled to partner with Marvel to bring this world to television and build upon the vibrant mythology that has captivated fans for years,&rdquo; said David Madden, the president of entertainment for Fox Broadcasting Company. &ldquo;These powerful and dynamic characters are complicated and larger-than-life, the pace and visual imagination are unrelenting, and the story takes place during one of the most explosive eras in recent history. We are so looking forward to working with this incredibly talented team.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;<em>Hellfire <\/em>is a unique opportunity to be able to go deeper with some of these extraordinary characters, but to also dramatize new characters and give TV viewers a chance to experience this expanded world in an explosive way that everyone will be talking about,&rdquo; commented Jonathan Davis, the president of creative affairs at 20th Century Fox Television. &ldquo;The action at the center of <em>Hellfire<\/em> will be dynamic and will satisfy the rabid fans, but that said, newcomers will surely be addicted too!&rdquo;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: Marvel Television is set to co-produce two new series based on separate comic-book properties: Legion for FX Networks and the tentatively titled Hellfire for FOX.
