The Clue scripted series from Sony Pictures Television (by way of Hasbro Entertainment) has landed at Peacock. Currently in development, the scripted show hails from Dana Fox (Wicked: For Good), who will serve as showrunner, and Nicholas Stoller (The Muppets), who will direct. Both will executive produce. If a Clue TV show sounds familiar, it should. A competition-series adaptation of the classic board game is in the works at Netflix. (There was also, briefly, a teen-led scripted version on TV in 2011.) Sony acquired the film and TV rights to the Hasbro game in 2024.

At one point, Jason Bateman was set to direct, but when his Ozark schedule got in the way, James Bobin stepped up. Some combination of creative differences and COVID-19 got in the way. In addition to Fox and Stoller, Hasbro Entertainment's head of TV Gabriel Marano will also executive produce the Clue series. As will Margy Love of Fox's company Foxy, Inc. and Conor Welch of Stoller's production house Stoller Global Solutions. Stoller has an overall deal at Sony. Since Peacock does not exist beyond our borders, Sony TV is still shopping the Clue scripted series internationally. Clue, if done well, should perfectly fill the Poker Face-sized hole at Peacock. The NBCUniversal streamer recently canceled the Rian Johnson (the Knives Out trilogy, which are already basically unofficial, elevated adaptations of Clue) MRC series starring Natasha Lyonne. Producer MRC is shopping Poker Face around, repacked with Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage in the lead role. The Clue board game was famously adapted for 1985 feature film Clue starring Tim Curry. Deadline first reported the news.
