HBO시리즈 Rome이 영화로?

 

Rome’ Movie Coming?

 

A movie based on the HBO series Rome, may be coming to a theater near you. 

Bruno Heller says he wants to produce a theatrical wrap-up to his critically beloved and prematurely canceled HBO drama “Rome.” 

“There is talk of doing a movie version,” he said. “It’s moving along. It’s not there until it is there. I would love to round that show off.”

The lavish period drama ran for two seasons on HBO, which co-produced the series with the BBC. With the final season of “The Sopranos” as its lead-in, the first season was solidly rated, but high production costs presented the network with a tough call on the pickup. HBO opted for a second season to help get more value from its initial investment but not a third, effectively canceling the show in summer 2006 before the second season debuted the following January. The “Rome” sets were destroyed, and the actors were released from their contracts, making the decision all but irreversible. 

Sounds interesting, regardless of having seen the show or not; which I haven’t. 

 

어쩌면 HBO 시리즈 Rome을 극장에서 영화로 감상 할 수 있을지도 모른다고 한다.
Rome의 작가이자 프로듀서인 브루노 힐러는 Rome이 영화화 되기를 바라며 이것에 대한 이야기가 나오고 있다고 한다.
높은 제작비의 압박으로 2시즌으로 아쉽게 끝난 Rome 
이미 셋트는 파괴됐고. 배우들의 계약도 모두 끝난 상태이니 아마 영화화의 길도 쉽지만은 않을듯하다.
만일 영화화가 된다면 1.2시즌을 새롭게 압축한 영화가 될지 2시즌 이후를 다룬 영화가 될지 모르지만
보레누스와 안토니우스가 없는 Rome은 상상할 수도 없다.
