FX is Developing a Series Adaptation of The 2010 Film NEVER LET ME GO
FX is developing a new series based on the 2010 film Never Let Me Go, which was directed by Mark Romanek from a screenplay written by Alex Garland. The film was great and it will be interesting to see how its story will be resented in series form.
The story follows three childhood friends at an English boarding school called Hailsham where they learn that they are clones, “created to serve as organ donors in a “breakthrough” medical plan to help extend the human lifespan. Together, the three navigate love, friendships and art while preparing for their inevitable deaths.”
It’s a beautiful story that was adapted from the novel written by Kazuo Ishiguro. Andrew Macdonald and Allon Reich, who served as producers on the original film, will executive produce the series.
The show will be written by Melissa Iqbal, who is best known for writing on the HBO series The Nevers, the YouTube original series Origin, and AMC’s Humans.
