AMC is looking to delve into the top secret world of Area 51.
The cable outlet has given the green light to a sci-fi period drama based on Annie Jacobsen’s book, Area 51.
The network is bringing in Walking Dead producer Gale Anne Hurd to mastermind the series, which will be set in the 1950-1960s. The proposed story would follow scientists and soldiers at the base as they investigate and hide the alleged alien crash.
Writer Todd E. Kessler is working on a script for the pilot.
lol seems as though more and more channels are delving into scifi and the actual SyFy channel is delving into reality tv.
