A new take on Douglas Adams’ iconic The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is on the way over at Hulu.

Deadline revealed the news, with Lost’s Carlton Cuse and Wonder Woman’s Jason Fuchs to executive produce and write a new TV adaptation of the legendary 1978 novel. No further details at all are known on the series at this early stage.

This isn’t the first time The Hitchhiker’s Guide has been adapted, of course, as the property has previously made its way to radio, to TV, and famously to the big screen in 2005 with a Martin Freeman-starring movie.

If you’re not familiar with The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the crux of the story centres on Arthur Dent, a regular fella who just about manages to survive the destruction of Earth and who now finds himself travelling through the universe with his alien BFF Ford Prefect.

Expect more on this new take on The Hitchhiker’s Guide as it develops.
