Neil Gaiman fans who know Neverwhere probably break down into two groups, roughly by age: those who were introduced to the stories by the not-so-satisfying (but fondly remembered) 1996 BBC TV version and novel and the more recent Radio 4 dramatization. Hunger Games regular director Francis Lawrence is looking to add a third group, those who know a planned new drama series. Lawrence is aboard to help develop the new telly take with the Mark Gordon Company, working up a fresh version of the adventures of Door and Richard Mayhew, which kicks off when the latter is drawn into a struggle for the control of the mysterious, hidden netherworld above, below and on the streets of London.Assuming it goes ahead, Lawrence will handle directorial chores on that series and one other, as he’s also part of a deal to bring a show based on Charles Belfoure’s novel House Of Thieves to screens.

Here’s SkySports take on it:
