Three years later he adapted the play as a feature film that went on to receive an Oscar nomination for best picture. For NBC\u2019s <em>A Few Good Me<\/em>n, which will be based on the stage version, Sorkin will write the teleplay adaptation and also executive produce along with Craig Zadan and Neil Meron.<\/p>\n<p>Casting and a specific airdate in early 2017 will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am thrilled that Aaron Sorkin is coming back to NBC to adapt and produce a live broadcast of his electrifying play <em>A Few Good Men<\/em>, which seems as timely as ever today,\u201d said Robert Greenblatt, the chairman of NBC Entertainment. \u201cAaron is one of the most acclaimed theater, television and film authors of our time, and I am pleased that the live event business that we pioneered with musicals is now expanding into other genres and attracting artists of his caliber. I look forward to his collaboration with our \u2018A-team\u2019 producers, Craig Zadan and Neil Meron, to bring another exciting piece of live drama to a broad audience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been incredibly impressed watching NBC resurrect live musical theater for television and I\u2019m eager to team up with Craig and Neil to help bring live drama back as well,\u201d Sorkin added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe couldn\u2019t be more thrilled to be working on <em>A Few Good Men Live<\/em> with the incredibly talented Aaron Sorkin. The stage production was one of the most compelling dramas we\u2019ve ever seen,\u201d said Zadan and Meron. \u201cNot only have Bob Greenblatt and NBC taken a chance on live musicals, but they are now exposing a national audience to riveting live dramas. We\u2019re very excited to be a part of these groundbreaking TV events.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNIVERSAL CITY: Aaron Sorkin is on board for a live staging of A Few Good Men to air on NBC in early 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[640,641,357],"class_list":["post-5850","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-a-few-good-men-live","tag-aaron-sorkin","tag-nbc","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
