And like the film before it, the TV series will likely have a difficult time finding another studio to make it. The franchise is damaged goods, to say the least. After all, the movie was almost universally panned by critics and it only made $113 million globally, which was considered a massive flop for a blockbuster starring Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey. Getting his own self-titled ongoing series and appearing regularly in team book The Scorched, Gunslinger Spawn has evolved into a fixture in the larger Spawn universe. It’s no so surprising that Amazon has decided to pass on the series. A popular character with fans, Gunslinger wouldn’t return until Spawn 308, where he possesses the body of a man named Javier and attempts to adapt to the modern world. The series theme song was sung by Frankie Laine. Nikolaj Arcel, who directed The Dark Towermovie, and screenwriter Anders Thomas Jensen wrote a script for the pilot and were also executive producers. Gunslinger is a Western television series starring Tony Young that aired on the CBS television network from February 9 until on Thursdays from 9 to 10 p.m. Glen Mazzara, who previously helmed The Walking Dead season 3, was tapped as showrunner, while Stephen Hopkins ( Predator 2, A Nightmare on Elm Street 5) was set to direct the pilot. Akiva Goldsman, who produced and co-wrote the film adaptation, was an executive producer, along with Jeff Pinkner, Ron Howard, and Brian Grazer.
