NEWS - Ecco perchè "Krypton" sarà "una specie di 'Game of Thrones' nello spazio"...

You’d think the idea of hanging around a superhero’s home turf before they were a hero would sound boring. Then Gotham came along and reminded us that in the right hands, nothing is boring, especially when your network will let you get away with blowing up characters with a rocket launcher. So now the long-rumored Krypton is finally getting a shot, or at least a pilot.
We’ve known a pilot was coming for a while, but it appears that SyFy is planning to take the show to series. The plot follows the House of El, two generations before Jor-El fires his baby into space, as they’re unjustly disgraced and attempt to return to prominence. In other words, it’s Game of Thrones, but probably less violent and in space. They’ve already locked in a showrunner, Sleepy Hollow‘s Damian Kindler, and even though Supergirl is struggling with CBS, it seems likely to return in some way. And, of course, Smallville kept up the Superman prequel business for a solid decade.
Of course, a pilot order and preparing for a series is not the same thing as making a series. Still, there’s a lot of leeway here. Krypton has been everything from a sterile, emotionless society in the hands of John Byrne to a vibrant pulpy space adventure setting in the Silver Age. If handled right, even Superman’s grandpa will be fun to watch. Especially if they give him a rocket launcher.
