Wolfenstein TV Series Adaptation in Development at Amazon MGM Studios

07/27/2025 Action

Guess what? Wolfenstein, the classic game about blasting Nazis, is the next big video game franchise getting the TV treatment! Amazon MGM Studios is turning it into a TV show, and honestly, I'm already hyped. I mean, who doesn't love a good Nazi-smashing story? They say the plot details are still under wraps, but let's be real: the core appeal of Wolfenstein is pretty timeless.

The folks behind the awesome Fallout TV series, Jonah Nolan and Lisa Joy, are also on board as executive producers for Wolfenstein, along with a bunch of other talented people. Patrick Somerville, who brought us shows like Maniac and Station Eleven, is going to be the main guy – creator, writer, showrunner – which is super promising. Apparently, he's been a Wolfenstein fanboy since he was a kid, so you know he's going to give it his all.

Amazon is clearly trying to recreate the magic they had with Fallout. I can see why – that show was a massive hit! They've already greenlit a second season, even though it's not coming out until late 2025. Crazy, right? Over 100 million people have watched the first season of Fallout, making it one of Amazon's biggest successes. It's no wonder they're diving headfirst into more game adaptations.

Speaking of which, Amazon has a whole slate of game-based shows in the works, including Mass Effect, God of War, and Warhammer 40,000. They're so confident about the God of War show that they've already ordered a second season before the first one even airs! Now that's what I call confidence. Honestly, with the success of Fallout, it feels like we're entering a golden age of video game adaptations. Let's hope they can keep the quality high!
