FX Networks has already ordered a pilot for this show, which is meant to present the origin story of David Haller, diagnosed with schizophrenia. However, he soon realizes that there is something else which is different about him "“ he has special powers, being a mutant.

What is interesting is who the producers of the TV series are: all those who have made the X-Men franchise a successful one "“ Bryan Singer, Lauren Shuler Donner and Simon Kinberg. Besides these three, another name was also added: Jeph Loeb, the Marvel executive producer for, basically, all the Marvel TV series thus far.
