A fantasy drama based on comic book Fables is being developed into a TV series by ABC.
Stu Zicherman and Raven Metzner, who created Six Degrees, are to pen a script for a pilot of the hour-long drama, says The Hollywood Reporter.
The televised version will revolve around characters from fairy tales and legend living in exile in modern New York.
Zicherman and Metzner said central characters in the Bill Willingham comic, such as Big Bad Wolf and Snow White, will have similar roles on the show.
Metzner said they are "just like real people in the real world who live and breathe and look just like you and me".
David Semel is to helm the project, having directed pilots for Heroes, My Own Worst Enemy, Life and The Cleaner.
