ABOUT DEADLY CLASS: Set in a dark, heightened world against the backdrop of late 80s counter culture, DEADLY CLASS is a 10-part series that follows the story of Marcus (Benjamin Wadsworth), a teen living on the streets who is recruited into Kings Dominion, an elite private academy where the world's top crime families send their next generations. Maintaining his moral code while surviving a ruthless curriculum, vicious social cliques and his own adolescent uncertainties soon proves to be vital. Based on the best-selling 2014 Image Comics graphic novel by Rick Remender and Wes Craig, DEADLY CLASS is a coming of age journey full of ancient mystery and teen angst. DEADLY CLASS also stars Benedict Wong, Lana Condor, Mar�a Gabriela de Far�a, Luke Tennie, Liam James, and Michel Duval. From Sony Pictures Television and Universal Cable Productions (UCP), DEADLY CLASS was adapted for television by Remender and Miles Orion Feldsott, who serve as executive producers alongside Joe Russo ("Avengers: Infinity War," "Captain America: Civil War"), Anthony Russo ("Avengers: Infinity War," "Captain America: Civil War"), Mike Larocca ("Spy") and Mick Betancourt (USA Network's THE PURGE, "Shots Fired").
