Share on Reddit

Rod Lurie has signed on to write and direct an event series for Fox about the Boston Marathon bombing. The untitled project, which is in development, is based on the best-selling book Long Mile Home, by Boston Globe reporters Scott Helman and Jenna Russell, members of the paper’s team that won a Pulitzer Prize for their reporting on the bombing. The book, a la The Bridge Of San Luis Rey, focuses on the real-life stories of five people whose lives are changed forever in two deafening blasts at the finish line of the 2013 Boston Marathon. It follows the heartbreak, terror and triumph on Boston’s tragic Marathon day and the week that followed. Basil Iwanyk, producer of We Are Marshall and executive producer of The Expendables franchise, will produce through his Thunder Road production company. He and Kent Kubena, who’s filming Gods Of Egypt, will shepherd the project for Thunder Road.
