Despite being incredibly popular and influential, The Chronicles of Amber hasn’t yet been adapted into a live-action TV series – a surprising omission in the entertainment world. A series was first announced back in 2016 by Skybound Entertainment and Vincent Newman Entertainment, but there was no news for years. Things seemed to change in January 2023 when Stephen Colbert joined as an executive producer. George R.R. Martin, a longtime fan and friend of the author Roger Zelazny, has also been a strong advocate for a TV adaptation. Unfortunately, as of 2026, the project has stalled again, and currently doesn’t have a showrunner, writers, or a network to call home.
