GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Actor Peter Serafinowicz Has Been Cast As THE TICK
We recently found out that Amazon was planning a live-action reboot of The Tick without Patrick Warburton in the title role, but fans shouldn't have too many issues with the actor that's been chosen.
Deadline reports that the great Peter Serafinowicz will play our new live-action version of The Tick in Amazon's reboot.
Fans were not best pleased when they found out Patrick Warburton wouldn't be returning after doing such a great job as Fox's short-lived take on the beloved character, but Serafinowicz has become quite the geek-icon in his own right so there shouldn't be too many complaints.
We also have our first logline for the new show:
The blue-suited Tick is recovering from a memory loss and ends up reteaming with his sidekick Arthur (Griffin Newman) to fight evil. The two are surrounded by a new host of characters that include Arthur’s sister Dot (Valorie Curry).
Creator Ben Edlund will write the pilot episode of The Tick, and will also executive produce, with cinematographer Wally Pfister in talks to direct.
