According to Sci Fi Wire, Brad Kern is trying to develop a television series based on the Scott Westerfeld novel MIDNIGHTERS: THE SECRET HOUR.

"The most intriguing part about it is that there's a secret 25th hour that occurs at the stroke of midnight, so when the rest of us are frozen in time, basically, a whole hour exists, and in that frozen hour there are creepy, ghastly, ghostly beings that are trying to do bad things," Kern said in an interview. "There are also a select chosen few people, those who were born at midnight, who can actually live and walk amongst the frozen world. A car frozen on the street is actually going 50 miles an hour. Rain drops are frozen in place. But these Midnighters, as they walk through the rain, they actually carve out a hole because they're walking through it. So they have one hour to exist in this kind of co-existing world."

Assuming the series ends up in production, Kern would probably serve as an executive producer for the series.
