Well, well, well… in a world that has DC shows such as Preacher, I, Zombie, Gotham, Arrow and many others we shouldn’t be surprised to hear of new possible shows bit this one, oh my this one excites us so very much!
This weekend at the DC in D.C. event, DC’s President and Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns was asked if it was possible we may see a Hitman series and, while he seemed a little caught off guard, he eventually responded that “anything can happen”.
Then he hesitantly added: “[yes] we are talking about Hitman.”
Tommy Monaghan is a Gotham City hitman with superpowers. During the Bloodlines event he was bitten by a parasite that unlocked his metahuman abilities, giving him telepathy and x-ray vision. Despite his high body count, he has a deep personal code of honor. Hitman was created by Garth Ennis and John McCrea. (DC Wiki)
What is interesting is what exactly that means? There are many possibilities for Hitman at this stage, but given that he operates in a universe full of superheroes – in fact, it’s where much of his humour and situations come from – we’d doubt a standalone series is likely: that means he would fit well into The CW universe with Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, the Legends and more, heck ,John Constantine is in there!
However, DC are planning on launching their own streaming service soon with Titans front-lining, so he could well fit in there too.
Wherever he appears, if he ever does, we’ll be looking forward to seeing his adventures on screen.
