The network on Thursday handed out a straight-to-series order for a drama prequel based on the 2008 action thriller written by Besson, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
The drama hails from Universal Television and EuropaCorp, which produced the Liam Neeson feature film that helped transform the actor into an action star. There is no writer or showrunner attached to the reboot, though a search is underway. Also undetermined is the number of episodes that the Taken prequel will feature.
The original film starred Neeson as Bryan Mills, a retired CIA operative on a mission to save his daughter. NBC's modern-day prequel would focus on how a young Bryan honed his skills and became the character depicted in the feature.
tl;dr
- story about how young Mills became the character from the movies
- will go straight into series production rather that doing a pilot first
- no writer, or showrunner attached, all they have is the idea for now
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
That trailer looked like it was designed for a Seagal movie but then Steven didn't show up and they had to improvise last minute. On the bright side, the amount of emotions poured into it is nearly the same xD
Scraping the bottom of the barrel with no sense of shame, television stahp.
Seen way worse cheesy shows. Atleast I finished the first ep instead of turning it off.
Rollo was a great accesory to Travis and this clearly shows hes not a good actor. If they make this like those shows where they solve one crime an episode or something Im out right away.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
