We’re huge fans of both the Russo Brothers (they have a little movie called CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR coming out) and the true crime genre, so we’re beyond pleased to announce that we’ve teamed up with the former’s Getaway Productions to adapt Atavist Magazine’s THE MASTERMIND, a series of investigative articles unfolding in real time. We’ll be working with the Russo Brothers to bring the story of Paul Le Roux, a criminal kingpin turned CIA asset, to television. The people at Atavist (cofounded by Evan Ratliff who’s working on THE MASTERMIND personally) are all super smart and awesome journalists so we’re honored and privileged to be working with them on this project! More as it develops.
Check out THE MASTERMIND at Atavist!
