An “Alan Wake” live-action television series is in development with Peter Calloway (“Cloak and Dagger,” “Legion”) signed on as showrunner and writer, and game creator Sam Lake as executive producer,  Contradiction Films and Remedy Entertainment told Variety.

 

Contradiction partner Tomas Harlan said the plan is to start shopping the show around in October with Calloway’s full pitch and that he’s already seen initial interest from a number of studios.

 

“‘Alan Wake’ was basically a TV series that was put into a game,” Harlan told Variety. “That was Sam’s vision. It was influenced by ‘The Twilight Zone,’ ‘Secret Window,’ Hitchcock, ‘Northern Exposure,’ a lot of U.S. television.

 

“We plan to work closely with Sam on our this show. Sam is a huge part of this. This is his baby.”

Mark Wahlberg would be a perfect Alan Wake

Loved the game (and DLC), would make for a good TV show. I hope it doesn't just ape Twin Peaks and Wayward Pines though - it is different than those in some ways.

This is the show portion they cut for the game and put in Quantum Break instead.
