August 14, 2009 by Cynthia
X-Files scribe Frank Spotnitz (seen here with his cohorts Gillian Anderson, Chris Carter and David Duchovny at the “The X Files: I Want To Believe” World Premiere.) is in development on two sci fi shows for HBO.
According to Variety, Spotnitz is working on a series called Humanitas which is a futuristic medical thriller. Spotnitz wants to take a look at the moral and ethical issues that arise out of our ever increasing ability to manipulate genetics.
He is also working on a TV adaptation of Robert Silverberg’s novel The World Inside which deals with overpopulation.
The ever busy Spotnitz is also penning a cover ops pilot for FX. You can learn more about all of his projects from his website BigLight.com.
