As we mark
the 40th anniversary of
William Friedkin’s horror
classic The Exorcist this
year, a TV series take on
William Peter Blatty’s best
seller is brewing. I hear Morgan Creek, which has
the rights to the property, is shopping an Exorcist
drama series penned by hot young feature writer
Jeremy Slater . I hear there is interest in the
project from broadcast and cable networks. Roy
Lee, executive producer of The Departed and The
Ring , is set to executive produce. Last year,
Morgan Creek and Lee shopped an Exorcist
limited series project with a different writer, Sean
Durkin. I hear Slater’s is a brand new take on the
material.
