Steve Blackman to direct Horizon: Zero Dawn series for Netflix

Deadline Hollywood, a reputable American source of news in the entertainment industry, has released an article that reveals details about the Netflix online service and its upcoming projects.

The main topic was the announcement of the future series based on the Horizon: Zero Dawn universe. According to the publisher, the development is handled by Steve Blackman, a Canadian-American screenwriter and producer, known for his work on the TV series Fargo, for which he was nominated for an Emmy Award. In addition, he is the main showrunner for the hit TV series The Umbrella Academy, which is currently in its final stages.

Despite the fact that The Umbrella Academy is coming to an end, Steve continued his contract with Netflix, and shared information that he had already begun work on a series based on the game from Guerilla Games - Horizon: Zero Dawn.

No details have been revealed, but given that development has only just begun, it's safe to assume that we won't be seeing the series for the next 2 years.

Recall that the actions of Horizon: Zero Dawn take place in a post-apocalyptic USA, inhabited by robotic dinosaurs and tribes of surviving people. The main character Aloy needs to find out the truth about the origin of robots, find information about her parents, and survive in this world.
