  • Development

    On July 8, 2014, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Blumhouse Productions and Entertainment One would be developing and producing a drama based on the debut novel from Gillian Flynn, the author of the popular novel Gone Girl. Marti Noxon would serve as the show-runner, writer and executive producer, while Jean-Marc Valee would serve as the director and executive producer.

    On February 19, 2016, Variety reported that Amy Adams had joined the project as its lead.

    In an interview with Collider on January 17, 2017, director Jean-Marc Vallee revealed that the original plan had been to adapt Flynn's novel for the silver screen, but that Marti Noxon convinced HBO and the producers that her vision for an 8-episode series would be better.

    On January 18, 2017 it was revealed that the series would commence filming on March 6, 2017.
