Alongside the new version of Tales from the Crypt, already ordered to series with M. Night Shyamalan producing, TNT goes deeper in its exploration of the horror genre with an order for “Claws”, a series described as “a midnight-dark workplace dramedy-noir”…
Produced by Rashida Jones & her partner Will McCormack through their Warner Bros. TV-based Le Train Train shingle, the project was first sold to HBO in 2013 but was passed on recently. It is now redeveloped at TNT, no longer as a half-hour but as a one-hour drama. Written by Eliot Laurence (The Big Gay Sketch Show), Claws is about a nail salon in Florida and the strange, dangerous women who work there. Sounds like a pitch Ryan Murphy could have come up with!
