Wonderstorm's 3 founders, Justin Richmond, Aaron Ehasz and Justin Santistevan all have worked Riot Games' League of Legends, but the trio all had a common goal to move forward in their careers. A little over 2 years ago, they set up a studio in California called Wonderstorm, with the vision to create a shared world between a TV show and "a deep, engaging video game".

Not only do they have the vision and the ambition, but also the experience and the knowledge to attain their goals.

Justin Richmond, who was a dev for League of Legends, also worked as a designer and director for Naughty Dog's famed Uncharted series. Aaron Ehasz, who was a creative director for Riot also worked as a writer and co-producer for Nickelodeon's Avatar: The Last Airbender, for which he even got an Emmy nomination for his work and finally, Justin Santistevan, who worked as the head of finance for 4 years under Riot Games' research and development division.

The trio has already formed a partnership with Netflix to have their show produced and streamed as a Netflix Original Show and, with the help of their small team, are creating a video-game within the same world. 

Nothing so far is known about their video game or TV show, but you can always stay updated on their site.
