Interesting short news snippet in the Hollywood Reporter of interest to Len Deighton readers on the other side of the Atlantic from the UK.
It reports that broadcast and film mogul Harvey Weinstein's television company, Weinstein Television, has secured the US rights to distribute and present SS:GB, which is due to air as one of the BBC's summer blockbusters this year.
Interesting quote from Weinstein: "With Philipp Kadelbach's incredible depiction of the story, there's room for another series."
Presumably, that would require another script from Purvis and Wade or ... who knows ... another SS-GB book? We can only speculate!
This is a blog about the books, film and world of British thriller and spy novel author Len Deighton, writer of The Ipcress File, Funeral in Berlin, SS-GB, Bomber, Berlin Game and many other books. This blog also covers the spy thriller genre and the Cold War more widely. It is a companion website to the main Deighton Dossier archive (link on the right). It is the only website + blog endorsed by the author himself! Content (c) Rob Mallows 2008-22 unless otherwise stated.
That's great news. I'm really looking forward to SS-GB on TV
