AMC has splurged for dibs on an adaptation of John le Carre’s The Night Manager, to star two-time Golden Globe winner Hugh Laurie (House) and Tom Hiddleston (Thor), The Hollywood Reporter reports.
Published in 1993 as le Carre’s first post-Cold War novel, The Night Manager follows a British solider-turned-luxury hotel auditor who gets roped into an intelligence operation to take down an internationally renowned arms dealer.
AMC will co-produce the David Farr (Spooks)-penned adaptation — which the cabler is said to be envisioning as a six-to eight-episode event series — with BBC One (which will air it across the pond) and Ink Factory.
