On a bonus episode of our podcast, we talk to Aaron Koontz, co-creator, co-showrunner, and lead writer for SYFY’s Revival, the adaptation of the Image Comics book by Tim Seeley and Mike Norton. On the spoiler-free preview, we discuss adapting the comic, casting the main roles, and how they’re honoring the comic without doing a straight adaptation.

Revival Official Synopsis:
On one miraculous day in rural Wisconsin, the recently deceased suddenly rise from their graves. This is no zombie story, however, as the “revived” appear and act just like they once were. When local officer and single mother Dana Cypress is unexpectedly thrown into the center of a brutal murder mystery of her own, she’s left to make sense of the chaos amidst a town gripped by fear and confusion where everyone, alive or undead, is a suspect.
The series stars Melanie Scrofano, Romy Weltman, David James Elliott, and Andy McQueen.
The series is created by Aaron B. Koontz and Luke Boyce, who serve as showrunners and executive producers. Lance Samuels, Daniel Iron, Samantha Levine, Neil Tabatznik, Daniel March, Melanie Scrofano, Greg Hemmings, Stephen Foster & Amanda Row also serve as executive producers.
“Revival” is produced by Blue Ice Pictures and Hemmings Films.
