'berlin' Headed For Small Screen
"Shackleton" producer Firstsight Films has inked a deal with Anthony Andrews' Double 'A' Films to co-develop a major television adaptation of the Christopher Isherwood novel "Goodbye to Berlin."
The adaptation will reunite Firstsight's Charles Sturridge with Andrews
for the first time since they worked together on the 1980s miniseries "Brideshead Revisited," which Sturridge co-directed and Andrews toplined. Cast details have yet to be announced.
The producers are working with an still-unnamed British network to develop the program and are in discussions with German co-production and U.S. broadcast partners regarding the project.
"Goodbye to Berlin" was the inspiration for the stage and screen musical "Cabaret." First published in 1939, the story is set against the backdrop of the Nazis' rise to power.
Sturridge will work with screenwriter Derek Granger (with whom he worked on "Where Angels Fear to Tread") to adapt the project. It will be exec produced by Francesca Barra.
