Clue Expands to TV With Scripted Series in Market as Netflix Orders Reality Competition

The push signals Hasbro’s broader effort to extend its classic game brands into television.

Overview

  • Sony Pictures Television and Hasbro Entertainment are shopping a scripted Clue series with Nicholas Stoller set to direct and Dana Fox writing and serving as showrunner.
  • The project is out to buyers and generating early interest, though no cast is attached and no network or platform deal is in place.
  • Netflix has formally greenlit a Clue-based reality competition that turns the board game’s deduction into a live contest with familiar characters and mechanics.
  • The streamer has not announced a premiere date or full production details for the unscripted series.
  • These moves follow prior screen adaptations, including the 1985 feature and a 2011 miniseries, after a planned animated Clue show at Fox was canceled earlier this year.
