Ethan Hawke as Vincent Freeman in 'Gattaca'
Rescue Me's production company Apostle has apparently acquired the rights to the 1997 Gattaca feature film and intend to turn it into a television series.
Variety, who buried the news at the foot of another article, reports the intention is to produce the series as a futuristic one-hour cop show with Gil Grant writing. Grant's writing includes the pilot Painkiller Jane, a couple of episodes of NCIS, Mutant X, and 24.
Though I have my doubts that Grant is up to the task of translating such a cult film as Gattaca effectively on to the small screen, I'm also good to see what he can come up with.
For now, there are no more details available.
