U2 Scripted Series From J.J. Abrams in the Works at Netflix.

J.J. Abrams and his Bad Robot Productions are reportedly developing a scripted series about the iconic Irish band. The untitled show, which is currently in the early development stages, will be penned by Anthony McCarten. The Oscar-nominated writer will mark his return to the world of music biopics with the U2 series following 2018’s Bohemian Rhapsody, which focused on Queen frontman Freddie Mercury (Rami Malek). 

Details of U2’s involvement are not yet official, but sources say the band behind hits including “With or Without You” and “Pride (In the Name of Love)” is expected to be involved and sanction the project. The series hails from Warner Bros Television, where Abrams’ Bad Robot is housed under a rich overall deal. Plot details are also being kept secret for the time being.
