Prime Video Orders ‘Sex Criminals’ Live-Action Series From Kumail Nanjiani, Emily V. Gordon and Tze Chun

The order underscores Prime Video’s appetite for bold, adult comic properties from creator-owned titles.

Overview

  • Prime Video has given an eight-episode series order for a live-action adaptation of Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky’s Image Comics title Sex Criminals.
  • Kumail Nanjiani, Emily V. Gordon, and Tze Chun are co-creators and executive producers, with Nanjiani confirmed to appear in the series.
  • Winter Coat Films and LuckyChap are producing alongside Fraction and Zdarsky, with Dani Melia, Dani Gorin, and Louie Hayes among the credited producers.
  • The official logline follows Suze, who stops time during sex, meeting Jon with the same ability and using it together to commit heists.
  • No additional casting or premiere date has been announced, and the order revives a mid-2010s TV attempt as Amazon MGM Studios hails the project as bold and original.
