 With the future of ‘24’ still hanging in the balance, 20th Century Fox Television has lined up executive producer/showrunner Howard Gordon to helm a new project for the production company, adapted from the Israeli drama ‘Hahatufim’ (Kidnapped).
The drama is based on three real life soldiers who return home after being held under Syrian captivity for 17 years.
Translated scripts of ‘Kidnapped’ were brought to 20th Century Fox Television, who optioned the rights to produce an American version of the series — which was re-titled ‘Prisoners of War’.
After hearing the pitch for ‘Prisoners of War’, Fox TV chairman Dana Walden said it was an instant decision to take the project to Gordon.
“The format is very smart and has all of the exciting elements that go into ‘24': an ongoing story, an incredible story engine and a very emotional situation,” Walden said.
Gordon will co-write the adaptation with fellow ‘24’ writer/producer Alex Gansa and original ‘Kidnapped’ creator Gideon Raff.
The American adaptation will revolve around three US soldiers presumed killed during the invasion of Iraq following 9/11 — two of which are found alive in a cave 10 years later.
“They come home greeted as heroes, but they are traumatised by the treatment there, and their families have become collateral damage to their captivity,” said Gordon.
It’s a “suspense, psychological drama” which explores the mystery of the third soldier’s whereabouts/death and the possible threat one of the returning soldiers may pose now that he’s home.
Gordon will exec produce the pilot with Gansa, Gideon and Avi Nir.
‘Hahatufim’, has generated a lot of interest and controversy since is launch earlier this month, with one of the soldiers, Gilad Shalit, still dominating news headlines in Israel. Some have argued that the show is insensitive to the Shalit family and to relatives of other kidnapped soldiers.
