While Nosferatu's Charlie Manx prepares to return to Christmas Land, where he has taken and will take many innocent children, AMC is planning a new kidnapping case. The network has just begun work on the dramatic thriller The Burying Place *, based on the novel of the same name by Brian Freeman. The main character in the original source is detective Jonathan Stride, who is investigating the kidnapping of a small child. Some believe that the baby really disappeared, but Stride is sure: the disappearance is rigged and the child's father is directly related to the crime. Soon, Stride's investigation intersects with that of a serial killer, and the police team must connect the two secrets and emerge victorious in a dangerous game of cat and mouse. The new series will be written by Kelly Masterson (Through the Snow, Assassination Kennedy) and directed by two-time Emmy nominee David Semel. It is noteworthy that of all the pilot episodes filmed by the director, 18 received an order for the first season, among them - "The Man in the High Castle", "Star Trek: Discovery", "Heroes". So the new AMC project has a great chance of reaching small screens. * - preliminary translation. Source: Deadline The Topic of Article: AMC has gotten into kidnapping. |
