The Bear creator Christopher Storer has lined up his next show for FX.
Storer and the John Landgraf-led network have landed rights to Sarah Harman’s upcoming book All the Other Mothers Hate Me following a massive bidding war. In fact, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that more than a dozen companies were vying for the author’s debut novel about an American woman who suspects her son may have killed a wealthy student at his West London private school. Ultimately, Storer, whose stock has soared with the success of breakout series The Bear, and FX, where he keeps an overall deal, proved victorious.
Storer’s darkly comedic half-hour earned 13 Emmy nominations for its first season, including outstanding comedy series and outstanding writing for a comedy series, as well as acting noms for stars Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ayo Edebiri, Jon Bernthal and Oliver Platt. Season one has a rare 100 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes, with this year’s second season, which delivered record ratings for Hulu, coming in at a similarly impressive 99 percent.
News of an All the Other Mothers Hate Me adaption, should it move forward as a series, comes as the larger IP market has grown increasingly frothy amid Hollywood’s back-to-back strikes, which ground production to a halt and left the industry with little else to sell. Prior to the work stoppage, Storer was busy lining up other projects, including signing on to direct The Winter of Frankie Machine, an adaptation of the 2006 Don Winslow novel, for Paramount Pictures. Storer, along with Josh Senior and Cooper Wehde, will produce All the Other Mothers Hate Me under his American Light & Fixture banner.
Harman, for her part, is a London-based journalist, who has spent more than a decade reporting on major news stories around the world, most recently as a foreign correspondent for NBC News. Her novel, which won’t be published until 2025, became one of the hottest titles at the recent Frankfurt Book Fair. She is expected to adapt her novel for FX under Storer’s supervision.
Storer is represented by WME, which also reps All the Other Mothers, as well as Kaplan/Perrone.
