Following up on Amazon's Too Old to Die Young, Refn will next tackle a TV series adaptation of the cult film franchise Maniac Cop. The Los Angeles-set Maniac Cop "is said to be told through a kaleidoscope of characters, from cop to common criminal," per Variety. "A killer in uniform has uncaged mayhem upon the streets. Paranoia leads to social disorder as a city wrestles with the mystery of the exterminator in blue. Is he mere mortal, or a supernatural force?"
