VIENNA: ABC has ordered a put pilot of ORF’s series Braunschlag<\/em>, with ABC Studios and Sony Pictures Television working on the U.S. adaptation called Hail Mary<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The American adaption centers on a young female mayor named Mary Wolf, who has dysfunctional siblings, a dying father, disgruntled citizens, a nearly bankrupt town and the mafia breathing down her neck. The only thing that saves her and her backwoods town is a faked miracle. Brian Gallivan (creator of The McCarthys<\/em>) is leading the series, with Seth Gordon directing the pilot and Tariq Jalil (founder of production company Intrigue) as executive producer.<\/p>\n

The Austrian original, created by David Schalko, aired on ORF in prime time with market shares of 36 percent.<\/p>\n

Marion Camus-Oberdorfer, the head of ORF-Enterprise\u2019s Content Sales International, said: “Intrigue never lost faith in this extraordinary scripted format and finally succeeded in setting up the Sony\/ABC deal; we are very proud and honored that Braunschlag<\/em> will soon be available as a U.S. adaption.”<\/p>\n

Schalko added, “The new and unconventional interpretation of the story makes the U.S. adaption very appealing to me. I am curiously looking forward to ABC\u2019s spin-off version.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
