Showtime has given a series commitment and opened a writers room for spy thriller Intelligence, a real-world scripted drama series from Oscar-winning filmmaker Mark Boal in his first foray into television; his frequent collaborator, producer Megan Ellison; and Michael Ellenberg’s studio Media Res, which will co-produce with Showtime.
Seasoned drama showrunners Alan Poul (Six Feet Under) and Jason Horwitch (Berlin Station) have joined the project as executive producers, working alongside executive producer/showrunner Boal.
Written and directed by Boal, Intelligence, based on real stories from around the world, will explore the secret inner workings of power – how espionage intersects with politics, finance, media and Silicon Valley. The first season will dramatize the behind-the-scenes history leading up to the 2016 U.S. election, with each subsequent season looking at a major world event through the lens of covert operations.
Intelligence is a co-production between Showtime and Ellenberg’s Media Res.
