Reboot series Mimic in production at Miramax Television

Miramax is adapting the film Mimic into a series. Paul WS Anderson will direct the first episode.
Miramax Television is working on a series that serves as a reboot for the thriller movie Mimic from 1997. Jim Danger Gray (Orange Is the New Black) will write the series and will serve as executive producer and showrunner. Paul WS Anderson (Origin) will direct the pilot episode. He will also serve as executive producer, alongside Jeremy Bolt.

The story is based on the short story with the same name by Donald A. Wollheim. Mimic revolves around the struggle against genetically manipulated insects who evolve and develop the ability to copy their human prey. “Mimic explores, on its surface, the idea of insects taking over,” Gray said. “Body horror, the anxiety of ‘a bug’ living inside of us, the death of truth, the denial of science and the rise of personal entitlement are at the heart of our show as it examines how society is eaten alive by an invasion that is laying bare its greatest insecurities and failures.”
