Are There Any Dark Romance Fantasy TV Series Coming Soon?

Dark romance fantasy is my guilty pleasure, and I’ve been scouring every announcement for upcoming shows. One highly anticipated series is 'A Court of Thorns and Roses'—yes, the Sarah J. Maas adaptation is finally happening! It’s got everything: fae politics, steamy romance, and a ton of moral ambiguity. The casting rumors alone have fans in a frenzy. The show’s expected to dive deep into the darker elements of the books, like the twisted relationship between Feyre and Tamlin, and later, Rhysand. If done right, it could be the next big thing in fantasy TV.

Another gem on the horizon is 'The Night and Its Moon' by Piper CJ. This one’s about two orphaned girls caught in a world of magic, power, and forbidden love. The book was a rollercoaster of emotions, and the TV adaptation could amplify that with visuals. The producers are aiming for a late 2024 release, and I’m already counting down the days. For those who enjoy a more historical twist, 'The Binding' by Bridget Collins is also in early development. It’s a quieter, more atmospheric kind of dark romance, focusing on memory magic and a love story shrouded in secrecy. The slow burn in this one is exquisite, and I hope the show captures that tension.

Lastly, keep an eye out for 'Black Sun' by Rebecca Roanhorse. While it’s more epic fantasy, the romantic subplot has a dark, fated lovers vibe that could steal the spotlight. The series is still in pre-production, but the source material is strong enough to make it a standout.

there's one that's got me absolutely hooked already—'The Familiar' by Leigh Bardugo is being adapted into a TV series, and it promises to be a perfect mix of gothic romance and dark fantasy. The book had this eerie, magical vibe with a slow-burn romance that's both toxic and addictive. The protagonist is a servant girl with hidden powers, and her dynamic with this mysterious, dangerous nobleman is everything I love in dark romance. The show is rumored to start filming next year, and if they stay true to the book's atmosphere, it'll be a must-watch. Another one to watch out for is 'The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue' adaptation. While not confirmed yet, the buzz suggests it might land on a streaming platform soon, and given the book's themes of cursed love and immortality, it could be a hauntingly beautiful addition to the genre.

I live for dark romance fantasy, and the upcoming TV adaptations are giving me life. 'The Cruel Prince' by Holly Black is finally getting its own series, and I couldn’t be more excited. Jude and Cardan’s enemies-to-lovers arc is pure chaos—power struggles, betrayal, and a love that’s as dangerous as it is passionate. The show’s casting is still under wraps, but if they nail the chemistry, it’ll be unforgettable.

Another one I’m hyped about is 'From Blood and Ash' by Jennifer L. Armentrout. The books are a wild ride of forbidden love, ancient curses, and steamy scenes. The TV adaptation is in early stages, but the fanbase is already exploding with theories. Poppy and Hawke’s dynamic is the kind of dark romance I crave—messy, intense, and utterly consuming.

For something a bit different, 'The Witch’s Heart' by Genevieve Gornichec is rumored to be in development. It’s a Norse mythology retelling with a heartbreaking love story at its core. The book’s blend of myth and romance is unique, and if the show captures even half of its magic, it’ll be a standout. Dark romance fans won’t want to miss these.
