Thema: Seven Ancient Wonders - Matthew Reilly's Jack West Serie geht in Serie ;)

[skfreak]

ABC has bought one of its most ambitious projects so far this development season — a globetrotting adventure from North Country writer Michael Seitzman and producer Mark Gordon. Based on the Jack West Jr. book series by best-selling Australian action thriller novelist Matthew Reilly, The Seven Wonders is a treasure hunt show in the spirit of Raiders of the Lost Arc and National Treasure. It centers on an unlikely five-member  team led by commando-turned-archeologist Jack West Jr. as they search the world for seven pieces of an ancient and powerful relic and along the way form a unique non-traditional family that includes West Jr.’s 12-year-old adopted daughter. Seitzman will write the pilot script for the project, whose first season will be based on the first 2 books in the series, The Seven Ancient Wonders (Seven Deadly Wonders in the U.S.) and The Six Sacred Stones. Seitzman got on board to adapt the novels the moment he read them. “They feel like big boyhood and girlhood adventure stories; they are really fun and remind me of all the movies in the genre I loved,” Seitzman said. He called the novels “a mixture of history and historical truth and carefully drawn-out plausible fiction.” Seitzman is writing the project under the new two-year deal he signed with ABC Studios in May. He will executive produce it with frequent collaborator Gordon, who also renewed his overall deal at the studio in the spring.

Whoa !!! Eine Serie nach Matthew Reilly? Goil
Skeptisch bin ich allerdings ob das als Serie funktioniert oder dann nicht eher in Richtung Relic Hunter gehen wird.

Also als Buch war das ja sogar mir teils too much aber ich kann mir das schon gut vorstellen! Die Frage stellt sich hier dann aber wohl eher nach dem Budget!? Für ne Serie weiß ich nicht ob seine Ergüsse da adäquat umgesetzt werden können!

Eben, genau das ist meine Sorge
