IM Global, with DNA Films, Lionsgate, Reliance BIG Pictures, IMAX and Entertainment Film Distributors, had previously produced the film Dredd. Rebellion are owners of 2000 AD and copyright-holders of Judge Dredd.

[edit]The population of Mega-City One in the TV series is advertised as "four hundred million citizens" (the population in the comic has varied between 800 and 50 million citizens).[3]
The show is planned to be an ensemble drama about a team of Judges as they deal with the challenges of the future-shocked 22nd century and how they develop.[4][5]
It is planned to consist of thirteen episodes and will feature live actors and sets, with CGI.[2]
The character Judge Dredd will appear heavily, though the series will not be exclusively about the character.[2]
