Video game enthusiasts who appreciate every moment in their games might find it astonishing to learn that Netflix is planning a live-action series based on Dungeons & Dragons. This streaming service will be drawing from the world of The Forgotten Realms for its adaptation.

The news originates from reliable sources, as shared by Deadline. Moreover, what adds intrigue to this venture is the involvement of esteemed producer, Shawn Levy.

As a devoted fan, it’s clear as day that the live-action series is set within the heart of the Dungeons & Dragons gaming universe – a realm captivating gamers since 1987. Time and again, the game has drawn me back to this same fantastical landscape, introducing fresh characters and adventures each time.

Intriguingly, several memorable quests from the Dungeons & Dragons game share a common campaign universe. Notably, the material that captivated audiences in the 2023 film “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” originates from the Realms universe.

In the event, Drew Crevello will be identified as both the author and executive producer of the outing, collaborating closely with Hasbro Entertainment in this role.

It’s worth noting that the script for the first episode of The Forgotten Realms has been written. According to reports, Crevello is set to serve as an executive producer on the potential series, working alongside Dan Levine and 21 Laps Productions, which is led by Levy.

Due to involvement from Hasbro Entertainment, the adaptation of Dungeons & Dragons has undergone numerous revamps, and creator Crevello has come up with an entirely fresh idea for this project, which is unrelated to any past iterations of Dungeons & Dragons.

Shawn Levy, known for his work with Netflix on shows like Stranger Things, took notice of the project due to his past experiences.
