Kumail Nanjiani Will Star
---------------------------------------------------
Prime Video has greenlit a Sex Criminals TV show.

Sex Criminals is an Image Comics series written by Matt Fraction
and illustrated by Chip Zdarsky. The series officially launched
in 2013 and ran for 31 issues over six volumes. It centers
around two people who discover they have the power to stop time
when they have sex, an ability they then use to rob banks.

What do we know about the Sex Criminals show?
Per Deadline, Amazon MGM Studios has given a Sex Criminals TV
show an eight-episode order. It comes from writers Kumail
Nanjiani, Emily V. Gordon, and Tze Chun. Nanjiani, who is
married to Gordon, will also star in the show.

The solicitation for the comic series' first issue reads,
"Suzie's a normal girl with an extraordinary ability: when she
has sex, she stops time. One night she meets Jon... who has the
same gift. And so they do what any other sex-having,
time-stopping, couple would do: they rob banks."

Margot Robbie's LuckyChap Entertainment is involved with the
show, as Sun and Dani Gorin will executive produce Sex
Criminals for the production company alongside Gordon,
Nanjiani, and Dani Melia for Winter Coat Films, and Fraction
and Zdarsky. Louie Hayes will serve as producer.

"Sex Criminals?is the exact kind of thing Winter Coat aims to
bring to life: love stories in weird places," Gordon and
Nanjiani said in a statement. "From the moment LuckyChap
brought us Matt and Chip's comic book, we knew we wanted to
bring these characters to screen and are so excited to do that
alongside Tze Chun and Prime Video."

Fraction and Zdarsky added, "We're overjoyed to have such
talented people bring our dumb comic to life."

Amazon MGM Studios' Peter Friedlander said, "Sex Criminals?is
bold, hilarious, and wildly original, with a love story at its
core that feels both deeply human and completely unexpected.
"Emily, Kumail, and Tze have brought a fresh, and emotionally
grounded take to this incredible property. With our
collaborators at LuckyChap, Winter Coat Films, and comic book
creators Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky, we're thrilled to
bring this unforgettable world and its characters to our global
Prime Video audience."
