Rosenbaum joins the project following a successful stint as executive producer and showrunner of USA Network\u2019s\u00a0<em>Queen of the South<\/em>. Previously, Rosenbaum served as showrunner for ABC\u2019s science-fiction drama\u00a0<em>V\u00a0<\/em>and FOX\u2019s crime drama\u00a0<em>Gang Related<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<em>Brothers in Arms<\/em>\u00a0video game series launched in 2005 with<em>\u00a0Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30<\/em>.\u00a0The franchise is renowned for its storytelling, character building and authenticity to the WWII timeline.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cScott is an incredible talent. I have tremendous respect for him as a writer and a showrunner and am thrilled for him to be a part of this project,\u201d said Gearbox Entertainment co-founder and series producer Randy Pitchford. \u201cScott will create more than a war show\u2014we\u2019ll all be on the edge of our seats as this series will be a surprising and heartfelt emotional journey that resonates across generations with brotherhood as the theme that reconciles and connects humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m honored to be joining the frontlines of this project and look forward to creating an emotional experience around a title that means so much to the Gearbox community,\u201d said Rosenbaum. \u201cWhat attracted me to this series was that while it\u2019s effectively a show about war, the series is really about the incredible stories of the ordinary men and women, from the soldiers, resistance groups, to local civilians who are confronted and overcame impossibly difficult extraordinary situations. In addition, it\u2019s incredibly exciting to be able to bring these previously classified, unknown stories to an audience, stories that an audience is going to be quite frankly shocked they hadn\u2019t heard before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joining Pitchford and Rosenbaum on the series are Jean-Julien Baronnet (<em>Assassin\u2019s Creed<\/em>\u00a0producer), Richard Whelan (first assistant director\u00a0<em>Band of Brothers Pacific<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Captain America<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Fast &amp; Furious Presents: Hobbs &amp; Shaw<\/em>), and Sean Haran, chief business officer at the Gearbox Entertainment Company and a\u00a0<em>Brothers in Arms<\/em>\u00a0series producer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to look at WWII storytelling from a new angle in order to touch a wide audience with themes like discrimination, the power of women having to choose between their family and their values, and how young adults can cope with the unprecedented situation they were not prepared to face,\u201d said Baronnet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is an amazing full circle for Gearbox as we bring one of our original titles to life,\u201d said Haran. \u201cThe\u00a0<em>Brothers in Arms<\/em>\u00a0franchise really put Gearbox on the map as an independent AAA studio. We\u2019re thrilled to bring our original flagship IP back to our community in a new medium and we can\u2019t wait for a whole new audience to engage with the new stories.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gearbox Entertainment\u2019s Brothers in Arms video game series is being adapted for television, with Scott Rosenbaum signed on as showrunner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":13080,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[3824,3825,3826],"class_list":["post-13079","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-brothers-in-arms","tag-gearbox-entertainment","tag-scott-rosenbaum","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
