Syfy developing pilot based on Resident Alien comic
With one of its marquee sci-fi shows leaving for Amazon, Syfy has had to go back to the old drawing board to find some projects it can slot into its schedule—though this is Syfy, so its drawing board is probably some kind of hologram. According to Deadline, one of those projects is Resident Alien, an adaptation of the Dark Horse comic by Peter Horgan and Steve Parkhouse. The original story is about an alien who crashes on Earth and disguises himself as a doctor in a small Colorado town, and Syfy’s show will be a “dark, twisted, and comedic fish-out-of-water story.”
