This is great news, I wasn't familiar with the source material going in but i ended up loving the movie as it is still in my top ten of all time favorites. I know the movie wasn't perfect but i really enjoyed the performances (including Keanu's although i felt like he's character should have had facial hair), the special effects were awesome and very interesting (after that kid found the knife and was hit by the car) but I really felt the direction and overall feel to the movie was pure genius. The director Francis Lawrence has made some pretty impressive movies since (I Am Legend was great although i preferred his alternate ending on the blu-ray then the studio's plus the second Hunger Games was so much better then the first) so i am hopeful that the show will be good and decide to follow the likes of Hannibal while acting nothing like Grimm, Sleepy Hollow or Arrow.
