IN THE NEWS

PRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT

Electus and Barracuda Productions have acquired the rights to Treasure Hunt, an original comedy/game show hybrid from the golden age of television. Executive Producers Barry Poznick and Chris Grant will adapt the show, but the basic premise will remain the same: a single contestant selects one of 30 “treasure chests” and wins what’s inside. “Treasure Hunt combines the laughter and lunacy of The Gong Show, with the decision making and risk taking of Deal or No Deal,” said Poznick. “There’s been a growing appetite for the classic game shows we grew up with.”

FOX put out a pilot order for a TV remake of the 2001 film Behind Enemy Lines, starring Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman, per the Hollywood Reporter. Jeffrey Nachmanoff (Homeland) is set to pen the script and direct the project, should it move forward.

TV One has begun production on Rickey Smiley For Real, a one-hour series featuring the syndicated radio personality, host and stand-up comedian. The show centers on Smiley as he navigates the ups and downs of professional demands, single fatherhood, and intimate relationships. The series will debut in November.
