We know that The Umbrella Academy's next season will be its last, but we also know that Steve Blackman will be making a series based on the game. According to a report by Deadline on Thursday, Blackman is involved in the upcoming show and has a multiyear deal with the streaming service.

Blackman said that the projects are grounded in characters that fans will love and relate to. These ground-breaking stories are going to be developed by all of our partners.

Blackman shared a few more thoughts about the shows in an interview with Tudum, but there aren't many details to grab onto. He said that Aloy will be the main character in the movie.

Why did you want to adapt a game like Horizon Zero Dawn and what are you most excited to tell from the game’s story? And will Aloy be the main character in this series?

Horizon Zero Dawn is an exceptionally well-crafted game with wonderful characters not often seen in the rank-and-file of the gaming world. Guerrilla Games has created an incredibly lush and vivid world of man and machine who find themselves on a collision course to oblivion. Their salvation comes in the form of a young female warrior named Aloy, who has no idea she’s the key to saving the world. Suffice it to say, yes, Aloy will be a main character in our story. My writing partner on this, Michelle Lovretta, and I are thrilled to be able to expand this remarkable IP into a series for all types of viewers.

It is unclear when the show will be released and who will play Aloy. I am still enthusiastic about the show. I like the story in both of the games and think it would work well in a TV adaptation.

It seems like we are a long way away from being able to play on the show, but before then, there should be a lot of other Sony games to watch. The Last of Us is going to premiere next year, and a Gran Turismo movie is going to be released in August. There are also God of War shows in the works, as well as Ghost of Tsushima, days gone, and Gravity Rush films in development.
