Overview
- A development deal announced Monday between Constantin Film and Hauser’s American Outlaw Entertainment launches a film adaptation of Code Name: Pale Horse.
- Cole Hauser will produce the project and is being positioned to possibly star, while Randall Batinkoff is attached to adapt the screenplay and produce.
- Constantin’s Robert Kulzer is set to produce and Scott Payne and Oliver Berben will serve as executive producers, confirming rights and author involvement.
- The memoir traces Payne’s long undercover work, including infiltration of the neo‑Nazi group The Base in Georgia and a two‑year Operation Roadkill inside the Outlaws Motorcycle Club in Massachusetts.
- The film is in early development with no director, financing, production schedule, or additional cast announced, and industry watchers note Hauser’s Dutton Ranch commitments and Constantin’s recent box‑office momentum as factors that will shape timing and approach.
