Peacock has announced that they are developing a new series titled Jade City, based on the first book in the bestselling fantasy trilogy The Green Bone Saga, from author Fonda Lee. The script is being written by Dave Kalstein (NCIS: Los Angeles, Treadstone), who will also executive-produce alongside Breck Eisner (The Expanse, The Crazies), The Brave creator Dean Georgaris and Universal TV.

Here’s the synopsis:

Jade City is an epic saga of magic and martial arts where two rival clans will fight to the bitter end for love, honor and power. Set in an Asia-inspired fantasy metropolis reminiscent of 70s Hong Kong, jade holds mystical powers and our two warring families will fight to the end over its control.

This sounds like a pretty cool series that might appeal to a big fanbase. Peacock has been doing a pretty good job to bring in a lot of diverse content, and I am excited for what’s to come. Are you interested in checking out the Jade City series?
