Based on a novel by British horror writer Ramsey Campbell, "The Nameless" marked Jaume Balagueró's film debut ("[REC]", "Sleep Tight") in 1999 and positioned him as the leader of the Spanish author genre movement. Now Filmax, the production company headed by Julio and Carlos Fernández, has taken on the task of adapting and developing the series.
To launch the project, renowned writer and director Pau Freixas ("The Red Band Society", "I Know Who You Are") is working together with producer Carlos Fernández to consolidate the product roadmap while Pol Cortecans (" Welcome to the Family "," I Know ") is writing a pilot, now in its second draft. The creative association is now completed with the entry of Balagueró, who will seek to print his deep vision of the genre.
"As with many other relevant cinema intellectual property properties, such as Fargo, we will make a new version in series format, which will bring together two of the best talents of our house: Balagueró, an iconic European genre director; and Freixas , who has been responsible for some of the most relevant international successes in Spanish television fiction, "said Ivan Díaz, International Director of Filmax.
"The Nameless marked a turning point in our genre editorial line and made us a reference in fantastic cinema," said Filmax CEO Carlos Fernández. "We are excited about the creative association of Pau Freixas and Jaume Balagueró, we are convinced that we will go one step further in fantasy fiction, in this case for television," he concluded.
