Syfy has closed a deal for Frank Spotnitz (The X-Files) to pen a four-hour miniseries adaptation of the 50-year-old Philip K. Dick novel The Man in The High Castle.
Filmmaker Ridley Scott — who in 1982 adapted Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? into the nihilistic big-screen drama Blade Runner — will serve as an executive producer.
The best-selling The Man in The High Castle presents an alternate history in which Nazi Germany and Japan won World War II and now lord over a fascist United States of America.
