Weekly World News' Bat Boy Could Be Headed to Television THR

The supermarket tabloid Weekly World News, home of fictional figures such as the half-bat, half-human Bat Boy and regular Bigfoot and Elvis sightings, is looking for TV spinoff projects, reports The Hollywood Reporter.

The 30-year-old tabloid signed with CAA, and a DreamWorks-produced show focused on Bat Boy is looking for a home, which it is hoped will be the first tapping into the publication’s library of characters
