Audience Network has confirmed a ten-episode straight-to-series order for a series adaptation of Three Days of the Condor based on the James Grady novel and 1975 film of the same name. Additionally, Max Irons (The White Queen) has been tapped to star in the series today.
Three Days of the Condor follows Joe Turner (Irons), an idealistic millennia who secretly joins the CIA hoping to reform the agency from within. But when everyone in his office is massacred by professional killers, this brilliant analyst is forced out of his ivory tower think-tank and into battle with the most dangerous elements in the military-industrial complex. If he is to have any chance of surviving, Joe will have to do things he never imagined himself capable of, and discover that no one knows their true character until they've been tested under fire.
Jason Smilovic and Todd Katzberg developed the series. Smilovic will serve as showrunner for the first season. They both executive produce with David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Marcy Ross. MGM Television and Skydance Television produce.
