Netflix has ordered a series adaptation of Liz Moore's bestselling novel The God of the Woods, Deadline reported. Moore will serve as a co-showrunner, writer, and executive producer alongside Liz Hannah (The Girl from Plainville).
The God of the Woods "follows the mysterious disappearance of a teenage girl, Barbara Van Laar, from a summer camp in 1975, which echoes the unsolved disappearance of her older brother 14 years prior. The series will tell the story of the wealthy Van Laar family as they fight to hold their family together, unearthing devastating secrets in the process," Deadline wrote.
Produced by Sony Pictures Television, the project's exec producers also include Neal H. Moritz and Pavun Shetty for Original Film. Information on the cast and a release date will be shared in the future.
