Riverdale creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa to make horror-comedy version of Bat Boy for Netflix

Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa is a busy man, constantly involved in many different projects. Most people know him as the creator of popular TV shows Riverdale, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and the Pretty Little Liars reboot series. Now, he's set to make a live-action Bat Boy series for Netflix alongside One Piece co-showrunner Joe Tracz.

Aguirre-Sacasa will executive produce Bat Boy through his banner, Muckle Man Productions, and his overall deal with Warner Bros. Television. In addition, Tracz, Jimmy Gibbons, and Weekly World News...
