As huge fans of both “The Twilight Zone” and the man behind it, the great Rod Serling, a true genre hero, we’re delighted to learn that a new film is on its way that explores the life and times of the man himself.
According to Deadline, Andrew Meieran and his Bureau of Moving Pictures have acquired rights to make a movie about Rod Serling, the “Twilight Zone” and “Night Gallery” creator who left behind a remarkable legacy of sci-fi and fantasy work. Stanley Weiser, who wrote Wall Street with Oliver Stone, will script the movie. Serling’s widow, Carol Serling, will be a producer along with Meieran.
“Rod Serling was one of the true visionaries in television history,” Meieran said. “He single-handedly broke the mold and established television as a powerful artistic medium capable of changing the world when used wisely.” We couldn’t agree more.
