10 Upcoming TV Shows You Are NOT Ready For

10. Gangs Of New York

Iconic filmmaker Martin Scorsese has seemingly found himself becoming more and more involved in the world of small-screen storytelling over the last decade or so.

In the last year alone, Scorsese has been overseeing the long-awaited Hulu TV adaptation of The Devil In The White City, with that planned show taking another hit recently with the dropping out of both Keanu Reeves and Todd Field as leading figure Daniel H. Burnham and series' director, respectively.

But while that particular adaptation appears to be experiencing a bit of turbulence at this current moment, Scorsese fanatics will no doubt be pleased to hear that the legendary presence behind the camera is also helping to kick off a Gangs of New York series in the coming years, too.

According to recent reports, Scorsese will once again be aiming to get a Gangs show off the ground after his 2013 attempt to do so, this time teaming with Miramax Television to help create a new "high-profile" spin on Herbert Asbury’s 1927 titular novel. Along with executive producing, Marty will also be on hand to direct the first two episodes, penned by writer Brett Leonard, that will supposedly focus on characters that weren't present in Scorsese's Oscar-nominated 2002 big-screen adaptation.

Just when you thought it was safe to head back onto the streets, eh...
