Aaron B. Koontz, the showrunner of Syfy's new series 'Revival', discusses his involvement in adapting the best-selling comic. Set in Wasau, Wisconsin, the show explores a bizarre phenomenon where people who die on January 1st resurrect the next day, creating chaos in the town. Koontz, excited by the comic's mixture of murder mystery and supernatural elements, believes the story can expand richly in a television format, urging a creative exploration of its world and characters.
What drew me to this project is the kookiness and supernatural flare of the story, which follows a town where everyone who dies on January 1 resurrects.
The comic, 'Revival', had a rich world with compelling characters, and the blend of murder mystery with supernatural elements felt reminiscent of 'Fargo'.
