\n\tNEW YORK: AMC Global has picked up the international broadcast rights for the TV adaptation of John le Carré’s novel The Night Manager<\/em>, starring Hugh Laurie and Tom Hiddleston.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe six-part drama is currently in production. A co-production between AMC, BBC One and The Ink Factory, the project marks the first TV adaptation of a le Carré novel in more than 20 years. Susanne Bier, who won an Oscar for In a Better World<\/em>, is directing the series. The 6×1-hour show is set to air on BBC One and on AMC internationally in 2016.<\/p>\n

\n\t“From a terrific piece of source material with great producers in The Ink Factory, a phenomenal writer in David Farr, an award-winning director in Susanne Bier, and two incredibly talented actors, The Night Manager<\/em> really is the whole package,” commented Bruce Tuchman, the president of AMC and Sundance Channel Global. “It represents AMC Global’s continuing commitment to working with the international production community to bring the very best television to our channels across the world. It is programming of this quality which continues to fuel the growth of AMC Global’s international footprint, resulting in increased demand from operators and viewers alike.”<\/p>\n

\n\tSimon Cornwell of The Ink Factory said: “Working with AMC to deliver The Night Manager<\/em> to international audiences is a huge privilege. AMC has established itself as one of the great innovators in television in the 21st century, and alongside the BBC we believe they are the best possible partners to support this incredible project. In Hugh Laurie and Tom Hiddleston we have the core of an extraordinary cast, in Susanne Bier a great director, and in David Farr, an exceptional writer who is bringing a brilliant contemporary take to one of le Carré’s finest novels. We couldn’t be more excited!”<\/p>\n

\n\tLaurie said: “I loved The Night Manager <\/em>when it was published, and for more than 20 years have yearned to see it realized on screen; I am now thrilled and honored to have the frontest of front row seats. All the moving parts are finely machined—we just have to not mess it up.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
