Jeffrey Levine and his production company, Bronson Canyon Pictures, have scored a first-look deal at FOX Entertainment Studios.
Levine will develop scripted projects across broadcast, streaming, and emerging platforms. The alliance includes the development of Rifle Season, a thriller by Pat Kelly that kicks off the Mace Winters series, with Levine set to serve as executive producer.
FOX has also landed the rights to develop Darktown, a novel by Thomas Mullen, along with Lightning Men and Midnight Atlanta. Levine will executive produce the Darktown adaptation alongside Len Amato and his production company, Crash & Salvage.
“Jeffrey is a proven creative talent with exceptional taste, extensive industry relationships, and a producer’s instinct for finding stories audiences want to see,” said Hannah Pillemer, head of scripted at FOX Entertainment Studios. “He’s already identified his first two adaptations based on incredible literary IP, and we’re thrilled to collaborate with him as he builds a bold, talent-driven slate under his Bronson Canyon banner.”
“It’s an exciting moment to be part of FOX Entertainment Studios’ growth and vision for scripted storytelling,” said Levine. “Hannah and the entire team have been incredibly supportive and collaborative as we begin to acquire, develop, and package projects for the streaming and global marketplace and build distinctive, high-quality content together.”
