Deadline confirms that The Great When, a new fantasy novel by Moore, is getting a TV adaptation. The production company Playground landed the rights to The Great When, a fantasy graphic novel that was published by Bloomsbury on October 1. It's the first in Moore’s planned five-volume Long London series of epic fantasy novels, which Playground plans to adapt into a series that spans several seasons. Moore reacted to the news in the statement below:

For the first time in my career, I’m genuinely excited and enthusiastic about a work of mine…one that I own, and believe could work marvelously in a different medium…being adapted for the screen.

In Playground, I feel that I’ve connected with people who respect both me and the narrative and are receptive to such input as I can offer. And, given Playground’s track record, I have little doubt that this will be anything short of spectacular. It’s taken me some time, but I think at last I’m ready for my closeup.

Alan Moore doesn't mince words when it comes to adaptations of his work, as well as notable criticisms of the current state of the comic book industry and superhero movies. It is understandable, considering his conflict with DC Comics and the long disagreements between the two sides. Perhaps the most significant part of The Great When adaptation, coming from an author who has not always given his stamp of approval, is that he's embraced it.
