Showtime has given a pilot commitment to Stephen Falk's magic drama Spoonbenders, based on Daryl Gregory's genre-busting 2017 novel of the same name. Spoonbenders revolves around The Amazing Telemachus Family, "a traveling family magic act — which happened to be made up of people with actual magic powers — and the tragedy that finds them forced to reunite 25 years later, when old debts, long-running grudges the mob and the CIA all come looking for them." Berlanti will serve as executive producer.
