Further to last month’s announcement from Paramount TV that The Alienist was slated for development into a TV drama series, a three-year production deal between Paramount TV and Anonymous Content (producer of True Detective) was confirmed this week by Amy Powell, the president of Paramount TV, and the managing partners of Anonymous Content, with the first collaboration between the companies confirmed to be the TV drama series inspired by The Alienist. Although no further details have been released regarding the development of the drama series itself, Variety reported that the three-year production deal will provide Paramount TV with “first-look rights to produce and distribute scripted programming developed by Anonymous Content.” It will also include “rights to broadcast, premium cable, cable and online distribution.”
