Netflix’s nascent plans to produce a Horizon Zero Dawn series are “no longer moving forward”, it’s claimed, following the publication of a Rolling Stone report this week that detailed accusations of “bulling, manipulative and retaliatory behaviour” by its planned showrunner Steve Blackman.
The report’s allegations relate to Blackman’s previous work for Netflix as showrunner on hit series The Umbrella Academy. Blackman has responded to the claims from 12 former colleagues and described them as “entirely untrue”.
Eurogamer contacted Netflix and PlayStation earlier this week following the report’s publication but did not receive a response.
