Fox is in development of a new Marvel television series titled "Hellfire"!

Marvel has just announced a new possible show coming to Fox that is currently being developed, "Hellfire"! At the moment this is just a working title but X-Men fans will know that this refers to the Hellfire Club!

"Set in the late 1960s, the series -- which will be produced by 20th Century Fox Television and Marvel Television, with 20th Century Fox handling the physical production -- follows a young Special Agent who learns that a power-hungry woman with extraordinary abilities is working with a clandestine society of millionaires – known as “The Hellfire Club” – to take over the world."

Speaking about the upcoming project, David Madden, President, Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company stated,

"“We are thrilled to partner with Marvel to bring this world to television and build upon the vibrant mythology that has captivated fans for years. These powerful and dynamic characters are complicated and larger-than-life, the pace and visual imagination are unrelenting, and the story takes place during one of the most explosive eras in recent history. We are so looking forward to working with this incredibly talented team.”"

Jonathan Davis, President, Creative Affairs, 20th Century Fox Television went on to add,

"“HELLFIRE is a unique opportunity to be able to go deeper with some of these extraordinary characters, but to also dramatize new characters and give TV viewers a chance to experience this expanded world in an explosive way that everyone will be talking about. The action at the center of HELLFIRE will be dynamic and will satisfy the rabid fans, but that said, newcomers will surely be addicted too!”"

Fox is currently doing great things with their DC Comics property Gotham, can they bring the same success with a new Marvel show? The Hellfire club certainly has some amazing characters to explore. (You can find out all about the Hellfire Club on Marvel's official site.) Is this a show that you would like to see created and explored?
