Taika Waititi To Write & Direct Time Bandits TV Series

Our eyebrows raised last July when we learned that Apple had landed a deal to turn Terry Gilliam 's cult fantasy time travel heist road movie Time Bandits into a TV series.

And even when he does try to make things better (such as reanimating the dead), it all goes comically wrong.
