Netflix allows rights to Conan The Barbarian series to lapse: Robert Rodriguez
Netflix has decided to let go of the rights to a Conan the Barbarian series, potentially leaving fans disappointed. The streaming giant had acquired the rights to the iconic character back in 2018, with filmmaker Robert Rodriguez set to take the helm. However, it seems that this project is no longer moving forward on Netflix.
This decision comes as a surprise, considering the popularity of the Conan franchise and the excitement surrounding Rodriguez’s involvement. Fans were eager to see how the director would bring this classic character to life in a new series.
While Netflix has not provided a specific reason for letting the rights lapse, it is not uncommon for projects to go through changes and hurdles in the entertainment industry. It’s possible that creative differences or other logistical issues led to this decision.
Despite this setback, there is still hope for Conan the Barbarian fans. The rights to the character are now available for other studios or platforms to pick up. This means that we may still see a Conan series in the future, albeit with a different home.
For now, fans will have to wait and see what the future holds for Conan the Barbarian on screen. In the meantime, there is plenty of other exciting content to enjoy on Netflix and beyond. Stay tuned for any updates on the fate of the Conan series and where it may end up next.
