SyFy’s Deadly Class First Trailer Released
SyFy’s Deadly Class is based on the critically acclaimed Image Comics graphic novel by Rick Remender and Wes Craig, from The Avengers: Infinity War directors Joe and Anthony Russo, Sony Pictures TV and Universal Cable Production.
Deadly Class is described as a coming of age journey full of ancient mystery and teen angst. It has been adapted for television by Remender and Miles Orion Feldsott. Set in a dark, comic book world against the backdrop of late 80s counter culture, it follows a homeless teen recruited into a storied elite private school where the world’s top crime families send their next generations. Maintaining his moral code while surviving a ruthless curriculum, vicious social cliques and his own adolescent uncertainties soon proves to be vital.
Remender and Feldsott executive produce with Joe Russo, Anthony Russo and Mike Larocca (Spy). Adam Targum (Banshee) from Chipmunk Hill also served as executive producer on the pilot, along with Lee Toland Krieger (The Age of Adaline), who also directed.

Check out the trailer below
I checked out the cast for this one on IMDb and spotted a few familiar and favourite names. Ryan Reynolds is on the list, a regular in many of my favourite shows for years. That pretty much makes this a “must watch” for me. There are also a couple who are no strangers to comic book adaptations – Benedict Wong (Wong in Doctor Strange) and Lana Condor (Jubilee in X-Men: Apocalypse).
