GRISHAM'S 'THE FIRM' is going to be a TV SERIES

We all know the book The Firm by John Grisham and if you don't you should, it's a good read.

Apparently E1 Entertainment has been shopping a spec pilot script by Lukas Reiter. 

Reiter originally developed The Firm for CBS a couple of years ago when the project didn’t make it to pilot. Since then he has written a new version of the script, which will be for cable most likely. Grisham has been very involved in the project, they have been speaking to quite a few cable networks, including FX, TNT and A&E, as well as to NBC and Fox. There is already interest from at least one cable net.

Reiter and Grisham are executive producing.

Many of you have already seen the movie that was based on this book but for those of you that haven't it's called The Firm directed by Sydney Pollack in 1993 starring Tom Cruise.
