Chris Hemsworth and Pedro Pascal will next be seen in the Crime drama ‘Crime 101’. It is being adapted from a novella written by Don Winslow. Bart Layton is said to be directing the show. He is known for projects like American Animals.
Netflix and Amazon Prime Video are said to be in a struggle for the rights of the show. There are talks that the deal can go up to a whopping price of 100 million USD. It appears that the project is more likely to go to Amazon.
Don Winslow is a best selling American author who has written many books that are later adapted to movies. The recent ‘The Power Of The Dog’ was also adapted from his work. He enjoys a huge fan base and the novella Crime 101 too has a vast reader base. The novella tells the story of a string of some high level jewel thefts that go unsolved for more than 10 years and continue to elude detectives working on the case. The thief has a strict code, which he calls the ‘Crime 101’. Lou Lubesnick leaves no stones unturned to catch him.
Pedro Pascal has seen a huge rise in his fanbase after the release of ‘The Last Of Us’. It will be great to see the actor collaborating with the Thor actor. Chris Hemsworth is also in plans of returning as Thor in a movie. Crime 101 has its producers: Working Title’s Eric Fellner and Tim Bevan, and Shane Salerno’s Story Factory.
