DEVELOPMENT
Yann Demange has been tapped to direct and executive produce the first episode of the upcoming HBO series “Lovecraft Country.” The series, based on the 2016 novel from Matt Ruff, follows Atticus Black as he joins up with his friend Letitia and his Uncle George to embark on a road trip across 1950s Jim Crow America in search of his missing father. This begins a struggle to survive and overcome both the racist terrors of white America and the terrifying monsters that could be ripped from a Lovecraft paperback. Misha Green will write and executive produce with Jordan Peele, J.J. Abrams, and Ben Stephenson. Demange’s next release will be the drama “White Boy Rick” starring Matthew McConaughey. He is repped by CAA, Independent Talent Group and Bloom Hergott Diemer Rosenthal LaViolette Feldman Schenkman & Goodman, LLP.
