After producing the blockbusters The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s Imagine Entertainment is re-teaming with best-selling author Dan Brown to adapt another one of his books, this time for the small screen.
Thriller Digital Fortress, from Imagine TV and 20th Century Fox, where the company is based, has landed at ABC with a put pilot commitment.
Written by Josh Goldin and Rachel Abramowitz, Digital Fortress, an international thriller set in the world of the NSA during a global threat. It’s described as a sexy cat-and-mouse game between a Snowden-esque character that is threatening to release all of the government’s secrets to the highest bidder and our female cryptographer and her elite team who are tasked to stop him. Teeming with double-crosses in matters of both national security and the heart, ultimately Digital Fortress begs the very real question, who guards the guards?

Well this is a good surprise! I loved the book. Read it in one sitting. I hope this project succeeds.
ReplyDeleteThis was the last Dan Brown book I really loved (I grew tired of it afterwards and stopped reading them altogether after), but I am excited about it, this particular book was the most different from the rest and quite enjoyable. Nice one.
ReplyDeleteNow this is exciting,can't wait to see how it comes together!
ReplyDeleteLove this book! Should make a pretty neat Tv series
ReplyDeleteLove this book, much better than his better known ones. I really hope this goes through.
ReplyDeleteI think they are going to try and modernize it and tweak around with characters to make it more topical, which is understandable but as a fan of the book (I think this is the best Dan Brown book), I would want it to be set in the late 90s like the book, and keep the technological aspects of it intact, and hopefully, end after one season and not drag it out.
