Robert Kirkman Confirms Two More Seasons of Invincible at Amazon
----------------------------------------------------------------
Viewers who have been enjoying Amazon Prime Video's ongoing
superhero series Invincible have something to celebrate.
Franchise co-creator Robert Kirkman reached out to the show's
lead actor Steven Yeun to share the news that Amazon has renewed
the show for two more seasons.
This good news comes just one day before tomorrow's season one
finale, entitled "Where I Really Come From." The entire show
concerns Mark Grayson, the son of the world's greatest superhero.
When he finally starts to develop his own abilities, he begins to
train with his father and fight alongside other heroes. However,
a horrible twist of fate threatens to shake up his entire world
and fight for what he believes in over his own heritage.
Invincible joins the ongoing success of Prime Video's The Boys,
another superhero show with several spinoffs in development
alongside a third season. Like The Boys, Invincible is based on
an existing comic series published by Image starting in 2003.
Co-created by Kirkman and artist Cory Walker, the series ran for
144 issues to its natural conclusion, which lends for a lot of
material for the ongoing Amazon show.
A film based on the hero may also still be in the works.
Announced in 2017, Invincible the movie once had Seth Rogen and
Evan Goldberg attached as writers before slowly descending into
development hell. For what it's worth, Kirkman has stated as of
January that the project is still being worked on in some
capacity. Perhaps the ongoing success of this Amazon Prime
adaption will be enough to get the movie tie-in soaring through
the Hollywood skies once more.
