Netflix is developing a live-action Dungeons & Dragons series based on The Forgotten Realms, according to Deadline. The project, one of Netflix's largest fantasy investments, is helmed by Shawn Levy (Deadpool & Wolverine), with Drew Crevello (WeCrashed) as writer and showrunner. The Forgotten Realms setting has previously been featured in the film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves and the video game Baldur's Gate 3. While Netflix and Hasbro haven't commented, Deadline reports the series is moving forward after extensive negotiations. Success could lead to a wider D&D universe on the platform.

Despite Chris Pine's desire for a sequel and expressed confidence in its development, Paramount's CEO, Brian Robbins, has indicated a sequel would only happen with a reduced budget. Meanwhile, Amazon's Secret Level anthology series features a D&D animated segment.
