This could be the most interesting Modern tv set show of the next yr or so . MTV has regulate Shannara , based on the heroic fantasy novels by Terry Brooks , straight to series . The first time of year will be 10 sequence , base on The Elfstones of Shannara .

As wereported last year , the pilot film is being write by former Smallville showrunners Miles Millar and Al Gough . Jon Favreau was signed up to direct , but is now just get , due to a scheduling conflict . Instead , the first two episodes will be direct by Jonathan Liebesman ( Battle : Los Angeles , Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ) .
It ’s sort of interesting that they ’re skipping over the first novel and adapt the second instead — but the second book is less obviously beholden to Lord of the Rings , and lets the show have an intense plot about the elves ’ magic failing and the vicious Dagda Mor taste to refund to the cosmos . It ’ll be interesting to see MTV endeavor to do something with the scale and ambition of Game of Thrones , but the youth - orient snark of Smallville and MTV ’s own Teen Wolf .
And like Adventure Time , this is another case of a series that takes place in a magical illusion region — that’sactually Earth in the future , after a calamity . [ viaTerry Brooks ]
