EXCLUSIVE: Feature writer-director Joe Carnahan (The Grey, The A-Team, Smokin’ Aces) has signed on to direct the pilot for A&E’s drama pilot Those Who Kill. Carnahan also will executive produce the pilot, an adaptation of a Danish crime series based on the books by Elsebeth Egholm. The project, from Imagine Television and Fox 21, revolves around a police detective and a forensic profiler who possess a deep understanding of the serial killers they hunt. Glen Morgan wrote the script and executive produces with Brian Grazer, Francie Calfo, Peter Bose and Jonas Allen. This marks a rare venturing into television for Carnahan whose only previous TV gig was directing a pilot for Fox in 2006.TV Editor Nellie Andreeva - tip her here.


Perhaps they should rethink this idea . . . considering the violence in Aurora.
I’m just sayin’ . . . .
is this the best Imagine can do…a series about a serial killer?? That’s what it comes down to doesn’t it.How disappointing…need a new head of television. last success was “The Playboy Club”. and Carnahan is a egotistical hack. Fun project,
Don’t hate. Celebrate. And to quote my all-time favorite line about ‘lacking’ (which you clearly are) from ‘The Untouchables’…’If you were a man, you woulda done it by now.’
They should rethink this idea because by the time it gets on TV the mini fad in serial killers will have run its course.
Sounds like the film Tick-Tock which was just announced back in June.
carnaham-n-cheese strikes again!
Egotistical or not, he still directed one of the best films of the year so far with THE GREY. Guy’s underrated.
not to mention Narc.
