The duo are branching away from comedy with an adaptation of Chris Pavone’s novel by “Scarface” writer John Herman that has a “Hitchcockian premise” ala “North by Northwest.”
THE TRAVELERS
Jonathan Herman has signed on to adapt Chris Pavone’s The Travelers for DreamWorks. Herman was nominated for an Oscar alongside Andrea Berloff for penning last year’s Straight Outta Compton.
A journalist who unknowingly works for a spy agency is drawn into a tangled web.
Chris Pavone has a new thriller in the works, and although it has yet to be released, it’s already turning heads on the rights market. The Travelers finds a travel writer caught up in a deadly conspiracy with global implications.
