Among the series developed by the company is a show about Napleon that Jean-François Richet is creating, along with “Black Musketeer” , created by Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de la Patelliere, who are also behind Pathé’ $73 million two-part adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ classic novel “The Three Musketeers.”
A spinoff of “The Three Musketeers,” the untitled show will be inspired by the epic true story of the first Black Musketeer in French history, Louis Aniaba. The show will follow the adventures of this lesser-known, yet truly heroic character who will be also be portrayed in the two-part film adaptation that Pathé is doing with a cast including Vincent Cassel and Eva Green.
Pathé will aim to develop the series with creators and talent before attaching TV channels or platforms, said Safaee. “Times are changing, the competition in the TV landscape is very high, so it’s crucial to really invest in the development phase of series, work with top-notch auteurs on scripts to reach that level of excellence we’re aiming for at Pathé,” said the executive.
