Thanks to TVMONKEY for the heads up.

Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas is back at the CW with Metropolis, a drama based on the 2000 British series. Thomas will write and executive produce the project, about a group of friends who are struggling with their adult lives not living up to the expectations they had when they were idealistic college friends.

The original limited series, created by Peter Morgan (The Queen, Frost/Nixon) and produced by Granada TV, had an eight-episode run with a cast that included James Fox, Louise Lombard, James Purefoy and Matthew Rhys. The adaptation is being produced by Warner Bros TV, Rob Thomas Prods, ITV Studios America (formerly Granada America) and Littlefield Co, with Warren Littlefield and ITV’s Paul Buccieri executive producing.

    I thought because it's The CW, and it's called Metropolis... it was some sort of Smallville spinoff, sad now...

    That sounds exactly like a show I watched last night called "Underemployed" on MTV.

    If Rob can hit it out of the park again with casting and make it not another stupid CW drama (which we VM fans alllll know too well) I will certainly be all over this. I just hope it works out.
    Also, I hope he's working on that VM movie. :P
