Charlize Theron and streaming giant HBO Max have announced their newest, oh-so-queer project: an adaptation of the DC Comics young adult novel You Brought Me The Ocean.

The book, for those unfamiliar, casts Aqualad–protege of Aquaman–as a gay teenager.Deadline reports that Theron will produce the show; at the time of this writing, neither the actress/producer nor HBO have said if she also plans to star in the series.

You Brought Me The Ocean reimagines the origins of the character Aqualad.The novel, which is a self-contained story outside mainstream DC continuity, follows the story of Jake Hyde, an African-American teen that heads off to college.

There, he falls hard for the captain of the swim team, and discovers he has the power to manipulate water. That revelation leads him down a dangerous path as he investigates his Atlantean heritage and begins to master his new abilities.Related: DC Comics announces Pride anthology to celebrate its LGBTQ charactersIt remains unclear if the new series will also tie in with the Aquaman film continuity.
