The CW has ordered a pilot based on the DC Comics property iZombie.

Veronica Mars's Rob Thomas and Diane Ruggiero will be showrunners for iZombie, which was launched as a comic in 2010.

Zombie is centred on the story of Gwen Dylan, a reanimated corpse who must consume a brain each month in order to maintain intelligence and gain the deceased person's memories.

Gwen works as a medical examiner to have access to bodies, and also helps to solve murder cases.

The CW is already the home of DC Comics adaptation Arrow, which stars Stephen Amell as the titular hooded hero.

An Arrow spinoff based on The Flash - which will star Grant Gustin as Barry Allen ? is also in the works at The CW.

Deadline reported today that Malcolm Goodwin (Breakout Kings) will star in the potential series as 'Clive', whilst Alexandra Krosney (Last Man Standing) and David Anders (Alias) will co-star in the pilot as Peyton and Blaine, respectively. Check out the description of the pilot below:

iZombie is a supernatural crime procedural that centers on Liv, a med student-turned-zombie who takes a job in the coroner?s office to gain access to the brains she must reluctantly eat to maintain her humanity, but with each brain she consumes, she inherits the corpse?s memories. With the help of her medical boss and a police detective (Goodwin), she solves homicide cases in order to quiet the disturbing voices in her head. Goodwin?s Clive is a detective who recently received a promotion from vice to homicide but has been floundering for his first two months and is in desperate need of making a case. Though dubious at first about Liv?s ?psychic? powers, she demonstrates too much accuracy for him not to take her seriously. Krosney plays Peyton, Liv?s best friend and roommate who is baffled by Liv?s recent behavior and feels like they?re drifting apart. Anders cast plays the show?s bad guy Blaine, an entitled rich kid who bites off more than he can chew in the drug business.

    • This 4K webcam from Acer is now only $59.99

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      This 4K webcam from Acer is now only $59.99 by Taras Buria Those looking for an affordable, high-resolution webcam from a reputable manufacturer can check out the latest deal from Acer, which puts its 4K webcam at a solid price. Thanks to a 14% discount, you can buy this all-metal 4K webcam from Acer for just $59.99. Despite the affordable price tag, the webcam has a pretty large 1/2" CMOS sensor manufactured by Sony. Apart from its size, it supports additional conveniences, such as high dynamic range and phase-detection autofocus (PDAF). Plus, the camera ensures you do not have to buy additional audio equipment, as it comes with two built-in high-sensitivity microphones, a built-in background noise filter, and the ability to pick up your voice from up to 2.5 meters away. Acer is not cheaping out on materials, and the webcam is enclosed in a more premium metal case, which is also good at heat dissipation (high-resolution cameras can get quite hot). And to make sure no one is peeping at you when the camera is in use, there is a magnetic cover also made of metal. Additional conveniences include an LED status indicator and a built-in mount that lets you place a camera on a tripod. Acer 4K Webcam for PC/Mac with All-Metal Unibody Sculpted - $59.99 | 14% off Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S.-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Snap Inc. launches new SPECS augmented reality glasses (for 'just' $2,195)

      By PWazzle · Posted

      Stop reporting AR glasses as an X inch screen, Y distance away. That is a horseshit meaningless spec. Report on the actual FOV angle. That's all that matters. And for the record, this FOV is ~49degrees. So we're talking about HoloLens level FOV... i.e. it's like looking through a piece of paper at arm's length.

      I bought a 4TB Samsung 990 Pro for $250 brand new during Black Friday, to give some comparison. Things are getting absolutely ridiculous.
