Chernobyl director Johan Renck and Spaceman producer Michael Parets have launched a production company.
Sinestra debuts with a two-year television first-look deal with Fremantle, and the pair has already set their debut TV project: an adaptation of Antoine Wilson’s novel Mouth to Mouth, which is billed as “a thrilling ride into the raucous LA art scene of the 1990s.” The book was included on President Barack Obama’s 2022 summer reading list.
Renck is best known for HBO and Sky’s critically acclaimed limited series Chernobyl (HBO/Sky), which starred the likes of Jared Harris and Emily Watson, earned 10 Emmy wins and is one of the best reviewed TV shows of all time. He also directed all episodes and co-produced the BAFTA-nominated Sky and Canal+ drama The Last Panthers, starring John Hurt and Samantha Morton, and directed pilots and episodes of Vikings, Bloodline, Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead and Bates Motel among others.
