ITV (UK) and AMC (US) have joined forces to produce a remake of the very popular and highly praised British series “The Prisoner”.

The 6 episode mini-series will air next year, and has some major talent attached to it.

Sir Ian McKellen will star as Number Two, along with Jim Caviezel playing the role of Number Six in the series.

That’s right folks, Magneto and Jesus are in a CABLE series together.

This is one of those times when a network is literally raised up by the people starring in one of their series. I’m very much looking forward to seeing this next year.
