Animated 'Deadpool' Series Coming to FXX

An animated Deadpool series is coming to FXX. The network announced Wednesday that the currently untitled project has been given a series order. Donald Glover and his brother, Stephen Glover, will serve as the sure-to-be-great series' showrunners. The duo, who worked together on last year's critical smash Atlanta, will also write and executive produce Marvel Television and FX Productions' take on Deadpool.

"Donald Glover is an incredibly gifted and versatile artist who'll bring the untitled Marvel's Deadpool series to life with the same intense, singular vision as his breakout hit Atlanta," Nick Grad, co-president of original programming at FX, said in a statement to Complex. "With the success of Legion, we're looking forward to again partnering with Marvel Television to create a series that is bold, striking, and entirely original."
