William Hjortsberg’s 1978 novel Falling Angel was turned into the neo-noir horror movie Angel Heart starring Robert De Niro back in 1987, and a new adaptation is on the way.

Deadline reports this afternoon that Zac Efron will star in the upcoming Angel Heart, a series adaptation of the same source novel that was turned into the aforementioned ’87 film.

The Angel Heart television series is being developed by A24 and HBO.

Deadline details, “Based on William Hjortsberg’s 1978 novel Falling Angel and the sequel Angel’s Inferno, the series will follow a down-and-out NYC paparazzi, who makes his living finding and photographing people who don’t want to be found. He is hired by a mysterious man to find a missing woman.

“But the deeper he digs to find her, the more it looks like a group of powerful elites, and maybe something supernatural, are covering up the disappearance.”

Zach Baylin (“Black Rabbit”) is writing and executive producing, while Zac Efron will also executive produce the Angel Heart series. Jonathan van Tulleken (“Shogun”) is directing.

Puh, klingt erstmal massiv unnötig, auch wenn ich die Buchvorlagen nicht kenne. Aber langsam wird es ja zur Unart Filme, die eigentlich schon alles pointiert erzählt haben, nochmal ohne Mehrwert zur Serie auszuwalzen.
