Noah Baumbach (Jay Kelly, Marriage Story, The Squid & the Whale) is developing a TV series adaptation of Andrew Ridker's novel Hope with A24 at Netflix, Deadline reported. Baumbach will produce with screenwriters Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski (Ed Wood, The People v O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story).
Set over one year in 2013, Hope "tells the story of the Greenspans, who are the envy of Brookline, Massachusetts, an idyllic and idealistic suburb west of Boston. Scott Greenspan is a successful physician with his own cardiology practice.... But when Scott is caught falsifying blood samples at work, he sets in motion a series of scandals that threatens to shatter his family."
