Production [ edit ]

Development [ edit ]

A television adaptation based on the 2004 novel, Let the Right One In , by John Ajvide Lindqvist was in development for A&E . [8] On August 29, 2016, the pilot was now in development at TNT as an eerie drama following the same premise as its predecessor. [9] On April 13, 2017, TNT announced they had scrapped the pilot and were shopping the series to other networks in its current iteration or a potential redo. [10]

On March 15, 2021, Showtime ordered a pilot for the series, with Andrew Hinderaker serving as showrunner. [11] On September 22, 2021, the show was ordered as a 10-episode series. [12]

In an October 2022 interview, Ajvide Lindqvist mentioned he was not involved with the show, explaining that he inadvertently sold all rights to the book for only 1 SEK when he thought he was only giving Hammer Films the rights to make Let Me In (2010), the American remake of the 2008 film adaptation of the book, meaning he will earn no royalties from the TV show; according to him, Hammer had misled him of the nature of the contract, saying "there were thick bundles of American legal prose. And that would then mean that I sold all the rights for a penny, but that was just a mere formality and would have no practical meaning, they said." [13] On January 30, 2023, Showtime canceled the series after one season. [1]
