Merlin co-creators Johnny Capps and Julian Murphy have revealed that a film version of the hit series is in the works.

The pair made the announcement at a special BFI screening for the fantasy drama's fourth series premiere.

"Julian and I are in discussions at the moment about whether or not to do a Merlin movie," confirmed Capps.

No further details about the film project are known, though the show's original cast - including Colin Morgan, Bradley James and Katie McGrath - are expected to star.

A fourth series of Merlin is currently wrapping up filming in Wales and will begin on BBC One next month.

A fifth run has already been commissioned, with Capps claiming that the advance pick-up will allow future episodes to focus on "slow-burn" character arcs.
