Filipino American Fantasy Comic DREAMWALKER Being Adapted Into TV Series With Mikhail Red Adapting

The Filipino American fantasy universe comic Dreamwalker is being adapted into a TV series, with Filipino film director Mikhail Red (Birdshot, Rekorder) set as series director. The show is an adaptation of the Dreamwalker action-fantasy graphic novel by Filipino American pop culture blogger Mikey Sutton and artist Noel Layon Flores. The novel topped the comics charts in The Philippines and was auctioned for TV adaptation. 108 Media envisages the show as a multi-season universe which will begin to find its way to regional audiences in Asia from early 2024.

Season one will focus on the origin story of the Filipino American protagonist Kat who returns to the Philippines under mysterious circumstances. She survives a bus crash and finds herself gifted with the ability to enter dreams of others and being able to extract weapons temporarily to wield against supernatural beings from Filipino folklore as she investigates the source of the monster wave while attempting to help those affected by the looming threat.

ContentAsia Award Best Director winner Treb Monteras II is set as showrunner and director, Red is series director and Los Angeles-based genre icon Kaitlyn Fae Fajilan is head writer.
