Judge Dredd: Mega City One will be an ensemble drama that follows a team of Judges futuristic cops invested with the power to be judge, jury, and executioner as they encounter the myriad challenges of a world in which east-coast cities have merged into a giant megalopolis. Despite its 22nd century setting, many of the issues they encounter will have echoes of those today from the dangers of domestic terrorism to the tensions between the ultra-rich and the disenfranchised


More at the link. Mark Stern is apparently also on board, who worked on BSG and Stargate Atlantis.

It will be great and get cancelled after one year.

Dredd is a cursed product

A Judge Dredd series without Judge Dredd (much less Karl Urban - who has been literally begging for any studio to greenlight a Dredd sequel) does not interest me in the slightest.

Lost me here. This will just be more SJW crap.

Karl Urban is definitely not involved right? Dude was a terrific Dredd.

I'll likely check it out, it'll probably be on par with Almost Human and as someone else mentioned also be canceled after one year.

Yep. Urban was a near perfect incarnation of Dredd. Love that movie

I guess we can't rule out Karl Urban, yet.

Bring it to Netflix/Amazon/FX/HBO/etc and keep it to 8-10 episodes and you have a hit on your hands.

Yep, to do it justice a Judge Dredd show absolutley HAS to be too hard for network tv.

Okay, if....some some insane reason....you still have purchased Dredd on Blu-Ray, I just saw that Amazon has the 3D/Blu-Ray bundle for the ridiculous price of $3.74.

A couple updates:

Urban is still in talks with the team.

Quote:

The actor revealed at the Star Trek Las Vegas Convention that he is in talks to appear in the television series [url=http://comicbook.com/tv-shows/2017/05/10/judge-dredd-tv-show-mega-city-one/]Judge Dredd: Mega City One[/url], which is currently in development.

"I am in discussions with them about that," Urban revealed. "I told them that if they write the material and give Dredd something to do and give him a function, I will be there. I would love to."


And some concept art:

The rare movie where the reboot was dramatically better than the original. The Stallone version killed the second by sucking so bad.

Uhhh, maybe you're trying to be ironic and funny somehow, but pretty sure you're just confusing Dredd with Demolition Man....in which case, how dare you, Demolition Man kicked ass!
