Joe Wright’s action thriller Hanna getting a TV adaptation

March 14, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Joe Wright’s 2011 action thriller Hanna is joining the ever-growing list of movies to receive a TV adaptation, with THR reporting that NBC Universal International Studios is in development on a potential series.

Hanna starred Saoirse Ronan as a young girl raised in the wilderness by her father (Eric Bana), a former CIA operative, who trained her as a lethal assassin. Her skills are put to use when Cate Blanchett’s CIA agent tracks them down, looking to eliminate them both.

The TV adaptation will be written by David Farr, who co-wrote the original movie, and recently scripted the hit spy thriller series The Night Manager. Farr is also attached to executive produce with Tomorrow Studios’ Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements.

Originally published March 14, 2017. Updated April 15, 2018.
