According to Deadline, Justin Simien (Dear White People) is set to develop a TV series adaptation of Geiger for Paramount Television Studios. The best-selling series was created by Geoff Johns and Gary Frank for Image Comics, and Johns will develop the series adaptation alongside Simien.

Geoff Johns will write the pilot for the Geiger TV series, and also serve as showrunner and executive producer alongside Justin Simien,...
