I've only read the first two volumes of the comic (I do intend to fix that, but my to be read pile remains ridiculous).
Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra's story of what happens when every male animal on the planet bar two drops dead is considered a classic comic. It ran for six seasons.
It has now been ordered to series by FX, with Michael Green and Aida Mashaka Croal as showrunners.
We do have some casting news. Barry Keoghan will play Yorick, the eponymous last man.
Diane Lane is cast as "the lead" of the ensemble cast. She's playing Yorick's mother, which means if it's at all true to the comics, she shouldn't be the lead (this is an edit as somebody pointed that out). 355 should be the lead if it's anyone but Yorick...
Other regulars apparently include Lashana Lynch, Juliana Canfield, Imogen Poots, Amber Tamblyn and Marin Ireland.
The series is going to be screened some time in 2020, so presumably they'll be filming season one this summer.
There is no word on who will play the monkey.
