Jack the Ripper TV Series Coming to FX from From Hell Series

Date:

FX is in preproduction for a new serial killer TV series based around Jack the Ripper and the From Hell graphic novels.

FX is developing a new drama series based around the graphic novel by Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell, From Hell. 

According to Deadline, From Hell tells the tale of Jack the Ripper with the killer himself as the main character. Detailing the events leading up to the Whitechapel killings and the cover-up that followed, the 572-page graphic novel is a meditation on the mind of a madman whose savagery and violence gave birth to the 20th century.

Filming for the production is expected to start as soon as possible. For acting opportunities, filming locations, and more information about the upcoming FX Drama series From Hell, sign up for our newsletter and we will keep you updated with the latest developments.
