Read from CBR:
the series is being developed by Interplay Entertainment Corp. and APA. It's seemingly in the very early stages of development, too, as it's still being described as a "potential series," but the plot would revolve around the eponymous earthworm while also introducing "new characters as they navigate the galaxy, where each planet is home to a race of anthropomorphic animals. Jim’s ultimate quest is to find his true home among the stars: a near-mythical planet called Earth."
"I remember loving Earthworm Jim as a kid," Interplay's Michel K. Parandi said. "And there’s so much potential in this story universe: a galaxy full of animals battling for power. Jim is an earthworm in a universe where Earth is nothing more than a myth. His struggle to find meaning is surreal and comical, but it’s also relatable."
"We are thrilled for the opportunity to create a show for an iconic character that we grew up both playing on Genesis, and watching on TV," producer Aaron Billet added. "The fans have matured and deserve a current take as we bring in new audiences."
