According to Deadline, the Baldur's Gate show will feature new and existing characters and draw its world primarily from Baldur's Gate 3. The original BioWare RPGs are "not official source material," the site says, but the show can use material from D&D's Forgotten Realms setting in general.

With the news that beloved RPG Baldur's Gate 3 is being turned into a HBO TV show with The Last of Us co-showrunner Craig Mazin at the helm, fans of the hit game are voicing their doubts.
