‘Silicon Valley’ Creators Developing Match.com Origin Series at TBS
Interesting....
“Silicon Valley” co-creators John Altschuler and David Krinsky are poised to tackle another tech-related subject. The duo’s adaptation of the novel “The Players Ball: A Genius, a Con Man, and the Secret History of the Internet’s Rise” about the origins of the dating website Match.com has received a pilot script order at TBS, Variety has learned exclusively. The project has original author David Kushner attached as an executive producer and hails from The Gotham Group, where Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Eric Robinson, Jeremy Bell and DJ Goldberg are all on board as EPs. “The Players Ball,” published in April, 2019 by Simon & Schuster, tells the story of the incredible battle between the founder of Match.com and the con man who swindled him out of the website Sex.com, resulting in an all-out war for the control of love and sex on the internet. https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/sil...CuV7AqkSjesfmw |
