STUMPTOWN GOES TO TV!

Fans of Greg Rucka's Stumptown series of hard-boiled graphic novels rejoice! We will get more of it soon, but in TV format! ABC has released the official trailer for their new action series Stumptown, starring Cobie Smulders (Maria Hill in the Marvel movies) as Dex, the titular badass character from the graphic novel series of the same name written by Greg Rucka and illustrated by Matthew Southworth. Check out the clip below:

Stumptown follows the story of Dex Parios, a strong, assertive, and sharp-witted army veteran with a complicated love life, gambling debts, and a brother to take care of in Portland, Oregon. Her military intelligence background makes her a great P.I., but her unorthodox style puts her at odds with criminals and not in the good books of the police.

The series star Smulders (How I Met Your Mother) as Dex Parios, Michael Ealy (Being Mary Jane) as Detective Miles Hoffman, Tantoo Cardinal (Blackstone, Outlander) as Sue Lynn Blackbird, Cole Sibus as Ansel Parios, and Adrian Martinex (The Secret Life of Walter Mitty) as Tookie, along with Emmy Award-winning actress Camryn Manheim (The Practice, Person of Interest) as Lieutenant Cosgrove.

The series is created by Jason Richman who will also serve as an executive producer along with Ruben Fleischer (Venom), Dave Bernad, Greg Rucka, Matthew Southworth and Justin Greenwood.

Stumptown is scheduled to premiere during ABC‘s 2019-2020 season.
