Overview
- Deadline and others report A24 has pole position for film and TV rights, though the deal remains unclosed.
- An initial project is envisioned as a television series from JT Mollner, Roy Lee and Glen Powell, with Powell not expected to star.
- Roy Lee has signaled interest in a separate feature for Netflix, which remains possible depending on final agreements.
- Verve is representing the rights, with Exurbia Films tied to the franchise and Pat Cassidy, Ian Henkel and Kim Henkel listed as producers.
- Competing pitches involved Taylor Sheridan, Oz Perkins at Neon and a short-lived effort from Jordan Peele, some of which would likely be sidelined if A24 finalizes a deal.
