Hulu is developing a drama series based on Scott Turow's 2022 novel "Suspect," according to Variety. The project brings together multiple collaborators from the entertainment industry to adapt the legal thriller for television.
The series adaptation hails from writer and executive producer Marissa Jo Cerar. Bruce Miller is also attached to the project. Both Cerar and Miller previously worked together on "The Handmaid's Tale," the Hulu series based on Margaret Atwood's novel.
Matt Shakman is set to direct the series, according to the reports. The project represents Hulu's continued investment in drama series development.
Deadline reports that private investigator shows continue to be a sought-after commodity in the television landscape. The adaptation of Turow's novel fits within this trend of PI-focused programming.
Scott Turow is the author of the source material, the 2022 novel "Suspect." Turow is known for his legal thrillers, including his debut novel "Presumed Innocent," which was previously adapted into a 1990 film starring Harrison Ford and more recently developed as a series for Apple TV+.
The development adds to Hulu's portfolio of literary adaptations. The streaming platform has previously found success with book-to-screen projects, including "The Handmaid's Tale," which earned critical acclaim and multiple awards.
The project is currently in development. No casting announcements, release dates, or additional production details have been publicly disclosed at this time.
