Del Toro first envisioned the story line as a television series, but was unable to find a broadcaster who was interested. A friend then suggested turning the story into a series of books with writer Chuck Hogan.[1]
A television adaptation premiered on FX in 2014, concluding in 2017 after 46 episodes.
