Red Planet Pictures has optioned the rights to Sarah Pinborough\u2019s The Dog-Faced Gods<\/em> trilogy and is in development on an adaptation of the first novel, A Matter of Blood<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Set in contemporary London, the six-part adaptation will follow detective Cass, who is drawn into a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a serial killer. When his older brother is found dead alongside his family, Cass becomes the prime suspect and must fight to prove his innocence while saving his marriage and searching for the serial killer.<\/p>\n

The adaptation is being executive produced by Belinda Campbell, Tom Mullens and Caroline Skinner for Red Planet Pictures and Pinborough.<\/p>\n

Pinborough has had previous novels adapted for the screen, with Behind Her Eyes<\/em> on Netflix and Insomnia<\/em> on Paramount+.<\/p>\n

\u201cSarah is the author of the moment, and one of the most prolific and talented fantasy thriller novelists in the world, so we\u2019re over the moon to be working with her as she brings A Matter of Blood<\/em> to life with an audaciously bold and brilliant vision,\u201d said Mullens. \u201cWe\u2019re always looking to push the genre boundaries, and this is the perfect project to do just that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pinborough said, \u201cI have been quietly in love with Cass Jones and his story since writing him, and I\u2019m so excited to be working with such a dynamic and creative team at Red Planet Pictures to bring him to life\u2014with a bang\u2014on the screen. It\u2019s such a joy; I\u2019m loving every minute of it!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
