Fox Orders FRANKENSTEIN to Series
News of series orders continues to hit the web, with Fox now officially ordering The Frankenstein Code among its new series lineup.
TFC centers around 70-year-old retired cop Jimmy Pritchard, morally corrupt and given a new lease on life when he’s brought back from the dead in a younger and stronger body (Rob Kazinsky). Now given a second chance, Pritchard has to choose between the temptations of his former life and a new purpose that comes with the new body.
Written and executive produced by Rand Ravich (Crisis, Life) the show’s described as a “grounded sci-fi drama” (so no neck bolts or green skin). Howard Gordon is also set as executive producer, and he brings with him a track record that includes The X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Angel.
Fox has yet to decide on the fate of Lucifer or Minority Report.
