The book starts out with an intelligence officer named Michael Havelock witnessing the execution of his partner and lover Jenna Karas in Costa Brava, Spain. I’ll also give my thoughts on who should be cast the main leads and how they can make the story more relevant to our current events. I read the book in college so it’s been a while, I’ll just go over the main storyline since I don’t remember much of it and don’t worry I won’t give out any spoilers, the book has lots plot twists. I know many foreign born film directors just couldn’t handle the work environment in the Hollywood system.įor this post I’m just going to gloss over the plot of the book, pretty sure it won’t be a direct adaption since the book came out in the early 80s and dealt with the current political climate at the time. Also, this will be Zhang’s first American-produced film, I wonder if he can handle the pressure of producing a tent pole type of picture without losing his artistic integrity. It’s one of Ludlum’s better books and also with big name talents behind the scenes, Brian Grazer and Ron Howard are producing while Chinese film director Yimou Zhang will be in charge of bringing the book to life I do hope we get to see a great spy/action thriller without the names James Bond or Jason Bourne attached to it.

ROBERT LUDLUM BOOKS WHICH WERE MADE INTO MOVIES MOVIE
Ludlum is best known by movie goers for his Bourne series, which was one of the most successful spy franchise in Hollywood. The recent news that one of Robert Ludlum‘s novels is getting a big screen treatment got me curious and excited.
