Tudors pair Michael Hirst and Morgan O'Sullivan are developing a contemporary retelling of Camelot, reports Variety.
Story details are being kept tightly under wraps and it is unclear how Camelot, the mythical castle from Arthurian legend, will link in with the new series.
Hirst will pen the proposed series, with O'Sullivan and Douglas Rae serving as executive producers. As with their historical drama The Tudors, Camelot will be a co-production between Showtime and the BBC.
Hirst and O'Sullivan recently completed work on the third season of The Tudors, which is scheduled to air next April.
