Screenwriter and author Juno Dawson is adapting the book for TV.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re absolutely thrilled to be working on <em>Penance<\/em> for TV with Juno,\u201d said Gabby Kardar, development executive at Altitude Television. \u201cEliza\u2019s novel is a stunning, zeitgeisty tour de force and there\u2019s nothing quite like it on the screen. Juno\u2019s vision for the adaptation is bold and brilliant, and we\u2019re delighted to be collaborating with her and Eliza to realize it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clark added, \u201cI\u2019m so excited for <em>Penance<\/em> to go into development with Juno at the helm. I couldn\u2019t ask for a better team in Altitude and Juno and can\u2019t wait to see what comes from this!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe first thing I did after finishing <em>Penance<\/em> was slide into Eliza\u2019s DMs to ask if she planned on adapting the novel herself,\u201d Dawson said. \u201cLuckily for me, she was open to a collaboration. <em>Penance<\/em> is a challenging novel and a challenging adaptation, but that\u2019s what makes the project so irresistible to me. How to capture the mystery, the sly satire, the character studies and tell this story in a form that no one has ever seen before? I can\u2019t wait to get started with Eliza and the team at Altitude.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Altitude Television is developing an adaptation of Eliza Clark\u2019s crime novel Penance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":19651,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[7864,3131,8106,8107,3489],"class_list":["post-19650","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-altitude-television","tag-eliza-clark","tag-gabby-kardar","tag-juno-dawson","tag-penance","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Altitude Television Adapting Crime Novel Penance - TVDRAMA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/altitude-television-adapting-crime-novel-penance\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Altitude Television Adapting Crime Novel Penance - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Altitude Television is developing an adaptation of Eliza Clark\u2019s crime novel Penance.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/altitude-television-adapting-crime-novel-penance\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-11-27T14:57:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-11-27T17:00:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/07\/AltitudeTelevision-Penance-1123.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"320\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/altitude-television-adapting-crime-novel-penance\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/altitude-television-adapting-crime-novel-penance\/\",\"name\":\"Altitude Television Adapting Crime Novel Penance - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-11-27T14:57:08+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-11-27T17:00:15+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/altitude-television-adapting-crime-novel-penance\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/altitude-television-adapting-crime-novel-penance\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/altitude-television-adapting-crime-novel-penance\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Altitude Television Adapting Crime Novel Penance\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\",\"name\":\"TVDRAMA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
