Escape the guitar and the weapons. Nicolas Cage will lead a brand new scripted TV sequence as Joe Unique, the topic of the Netflix docuseries Tiger King, CBS TV Studios introduced on Monday, Might 4. The eight-episode restricted sequence has not but landed at a community.
The challenge relies on Leif Reigstad‘s Texas Month-to-month article, Joe Unique: A Darkish Journey Into the World of a Man Gone Wild. The sequence marks the primary TV present that Cage, 56, has ever starred in. He will even be an government producer on the sequence together with Brian Grazer, Samie Kim Falvey, Dan Lagana, Paul Younger, Scott Brown and Megan Creydt.
The log line is as follows: “Joe Shreibvogel, an eccentric, unique zookeeper in Oklahoma who fights to maintain his park — even on the danger of dropping his sanity. The sequence will dwell within the lion’s den with Joe, discover how he turned Joe Unique, and the way he misplaced himself to a personality of his personal creation.”
Shreibvogel, 57, was convicted in 2019 on 17 federal prices of animal abuse and two counts of homicide for rent. He's at the moment serving a 22-year sentence in federal jail.
Netflix’s Tiger King: Homicide, Mayhem and Insanity turned an enormous hit for the streaming large and the Nicola Cage-led present is the second sequence within the works. Kate McKinnon is about to painting Large Cat Rescue CEO Carole Baskin — Joe Unique’s enemy — in an adaptation of the Wondery podcast “Joe Unique,” which is within the works at Common Productions.
“Kate McKinnon is a superb actress. Large Cat Rescue implores Kate McKinnon to not use actual large cats and cubs within the making of her sequence,” Baskin, 58, instructed Leisure Weekly on March 31. “The Wondery podcast, which is the premise for her sequence, explores the rampant breeding, abuse and exploitation of massive cats by breeder and exhibitor Joe Unique. It will be merciless to make use of actual large cats in a tv sequence about cruelty to large cats. We urge McKinnon to make the most of computer-generated imagery (CGI) of cats within the present reasonably than forcing actual large cats to undergo simply to entertain the viewers.”
