Clive Barker Producing TV Series Based On His Novel ‘Weaveworld’

The CW is developing Weaveworld, a drama series based on the horror / fantasy novel by Clive Barker (Hellraiser).

The genre writer-filmmaker is set to executive produce the project, written/executive produced by Jack Kenny (Warehouse 13).


For decades, Weaveworld had been considered too hard to adapt for TV because of its scope and settings that would require extensive use of special effects. That is something that the current technology can accomplish on a TV budget as proven by shows like ABC’s Once Upon A Time, the CW’s Arrow and Flash and Fox’s Gotham. There had been multiple attempts to adapt Weaveworld as a miniseries in the past two decades, including by Showtime
