Damien Chazelle developing musical TV series The Eddy

April 29, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Whiplash and La La Land director Damien Chazelle is turning his attention to the small screen, with THR reporting that the Oscar-winner is set to helm a new musical drama series entitled The Eddy, which has been penned by Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child).

The project is being shopped to cable and streaming outlets, and is described as “a musical drama set in contemporary multicultural Paris that revolves around a club, its owner, the house band and the volatile city that surrounds them.”

Chazelle, who became the youngest Best Director winner at the Academy Awards this February for La La Land, is reuniting with Ryan Gosling for his next film First Man, which sees Gosling as astronaut Neil Armstrong and is set to land in October 2018. His 2010 screenplay The Claim has also recently been optioned, and is expected to arrive some time in 2018.
