Summary
- A new Clue TV series is heading to Peacock.
- The show promises a modern twist on the classic murder mystery.
- Sony Pictures Television retained international rights to the series.
Sony Pictures Television and Hasbro Entertainment have developed a new Clue television series, which will be exclusively available on Peacock. The project attracted significant interest from various platforms before securing a deal with the NBCUniversal streamer. This move allows Peacock to potentially fill the void left by the cancellation of "Poker Face," offering a similar comedic mystery experience to its audience.
The series adapts the iconic board game, introducing a fresh take on its colorful characters and familiar premise. The narrative centers on a group of strangers attending an eccentric billionaire's murder mystery night, only to find the game escalating into a real-life, high-stakes situation where nothing is as it appears.
Beyond its domestic release on Peacock, the deal is advantageous for Sony Pictures Television, as they will retain and exploit the international rights to the series. This move stems from a 2024 agreement between Sony and Hasbro for the film and TV rights to the murder mystery game.
