About this episode
Lionsgate Television and 3 Arts Entertainment have acquired the rights to adapt Kimberly McCreight’s upcoming novel, Someone Else’s Husband, into a television series. The psychological thriller follows a wealthy woman whose life is upended when her husband becomes a murder suspect following an illicit affair during a mountain climbing trip. McCreight is set to serve as an executive producer and co-writer for the project, continuing her successful track record of seeing her literary works optioned for the screen. Production partners aim to find a showrunner soon to bring this narrative of betrayal and secrets to a global audience. This deal highlights the ongoing industry trend of securing high-profile book-to-series adaptations before they even hit retail shelves.
