‘Devil in the White City’is now a Hulu series
    2019-02-13  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

Erik Larson’s “The Devil in the White City” is the kind of book that always seemed destined* to land on screen. Now, the long-gestating adaptation shepherded by Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio has found a new home at Hulu. The network announced yesterday that it would be partnering with Paramount TV to develop Larson’s novel into a series, the latest step in a decade-long process to make a filmed adaptation of the book.

Monday’s announcement describes the basis for the new project as “the spellbinding* and chilling true story of two men, an architect and a serial killer, whose fates were forever linked by The Chicago World’s Fair of 1893. Each embodying American ingenuity at the dawn of the 20th century — Daniel H. Burnham, a brilliant and fastidious* architect racing to make his mark on the world and Henry H. Holmes, a handsome and cunning* doctor who fashioned his own pharmaceutical ‘Murder Castle’ on fair grounds — a palace built to seduce, torture and mutilate young women.”

“The Devil in the White City” has been a project in the works far preceding the rise in prestige TV. DiCaprio has been attached since the beginning, originally announced to play Holmes when his production company Appian Way picked upthe rights to the book all the way back in 2010. Scorsese originally entered the mix five years later, when the aim was still to make it a feature film.
