Doctor Who and The Last of Us director Peter Hoar has opened a "genre-based" production company, Multitude Productions, and has acquired the IP for the iconic '70s and '80s sci-fi hit along with exec Matthew Bouch and producer Jason Haigh-Ellery, Deadline has confirmed.
Hoar told Deadline: "The Blake’s 7 story is legendary because they were given a ‘softly softly’ slot that was intended for police drama with a budget intended for one big set and a few location shoots.
"At the time it felt like it meant something. Those shows got into my veins. I could tell they didn’t have money but I was able to compartmentalise and enjoy the ride knowing that the sets wobbled."
Multitude is also working on TV adaptations of Luke Rhinehart’s The Search for the Dice Man, Patrick Carman’s Skeleton Creek, and an adaptation of a currently unnamed "well-known video game and a sci-fi series".
In 1978, producer David Maloney told Radio Times: "We’ve got something Star Wars doesn’t have – time to develop our plot, characters and action. They’ve got two hours we’ve got 12."
