If it goes forward, the TV version of “Lost Boys” will start in 1967 and advance one decade each season, with its intended series finale set in the contemporaneous 2020s.
Does this mean the third season will remake the events depicted in the 1987 teen vampire movie?
Rob Thomas, a writer of young adult fiction whose TV credits include creating both versions of “Cupid,” as well as “Veronica Mars,” “Party Down” and The CW’s “iZombie,” will write the pilot and oversee production.
Deadline’s exclusive suggests the new vampire hourlong may be intended to replace “The Vampire Diaries,” which is closing shop at The CW following eight long seasons. Find it here.
