ABC is making a 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' series for Hulu

Hulu might not have the answer to The Great Question, but it's cooking up something tHGttG fans may appreciate... if it does things right. The streaming platform is developing an adaptation of Douglas Adams' beloved classic The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, according to Deadline. Apparently, the project will be headed by Carlton Cuse, one of the showrunners behind Lost, Bates Motel and Locke & Key, as well as Jason Fuchs, whose writing credits include Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman. Cuse and Fuchs will write and executive produce the project under ABC Signature, the streaming division of ABC Studios, and Cuse's Genre Arts. Fuchs is reportedly writing the pilot script for what Deadline says is "a modern updating of the classic story," which started as a radio series in 1978.
