Shogun director Jonathan van Tulleken will lead a TV adaptation of Andrew Michael Hurley‘s debut novel, The Loney. In a competitive situation, New Regency Television International acquired rights to the book and has attached van Tulleken, who will direct and executive-produce the initial episodes of the upcoming Blade Runner 2099.
Van Tulleken will work with New Regency Television International execs Ed Rubin, Emma Broughton and Beth Pattinson out of the company’s UK office.
Shōgun, which he directed for Disney+, has been one of the most streamed originals of 2024 to date. The Loney, Hurley’s first novel, was a Sunday Times bestseller, tells the story of two brothers on a journey through northwest England where they encounter unnerving secrets and become enmeshed in a series of terrifying events that shape their lives forever.
It has attracted praise from the likes of Stephen King and won the the British Book Awards’ Book of the Year. After that, Hurley published two more horror novels, Devil’s Day and Starve Acre, the latter of which is being adapted as a film, starring Matt Smith and Morfydd Clark.
