Robert Galbraith’s Cormoran Strike novels to be adapted for major new BBC One drama series

Today it was announced that the Cormoran Strike novels will be adapted for a major new television series for BBC One, produced by Brontë Film and TV. 


J.K. Rowling will collaborate on the project, with the number and length of episodes to be decided once the creative adaptation process has formally begun.  This marks a continuation of the BBC’s relationship with Brontë Film and TV, and with J.K. Rowling.

Danny Cohen, Director of BBC Television says: “It’s a wonderful coup for BBC Television to be bringing J.K. Rowling’s latest books to the screen. With the rich character of Cormoran Strike at their heart, these dramas will be event television across the world.”

Kirk Need to find a tall actor with frizzy hair who can limp properly. BBC already cast against the books when they chose Nathaniel Parker to play Lynley; hope they don't do so again.
