Deadline Hollywood reports that Lawrence will team with producing partner Erwin Stoff (I Am Legend) to adapt Gaiman’s fantasy tale for the small screen.
Neverwhere creates a split vision of London, made up of “London Above” and “London Below”, and follows a protagonist who must unravel the secrets of this bizarre world when he encounters an injured girl on the street.
Lawrence and Stoff will also work together on another drama series, based on Charles Belfoure’s 2015 mystery novel House of Thieves.
