Warner Bros. Picks Up Rights to Heist Thriller THE GHOSTMAN

Nick Martin April 15, 2012 Add a Comment
Warner Brothers Warner Bros. has acquired screen rights to Roger Hobbs‘ debut thriller novel The Ghostman for low six figures. A huge break for the 23 year-old novelist hasn’t even been released yet and it will be published by Knopf in 2013. Orion will release another of writer’s novels, who recently graduated from Reed College, entitled Vanishing Games, in 2014. Warner Bros. has inked a blind script deal with up-and-coming Hobbs for The Ghostman that follows:
Jack, one of the most successful armed robbers in the world, whose persona has been neatly disguised through years of stagecraft. A casino heist gives him the chance to make a killing in cash — or be killed in the process.
The Studios is also looking at this property as a possible franchise. Here’s the synopsis forThe Ghostman:
Jack Delton is a hard man to get hold of. There are maybe thirty people who know he exists. Not all of them believe he is still alive. And only one of them knows his real name. So when he gets the email he knows whatever it is, it’s going to be bad. Marcus Fairlan and Jack used to work together. Until they had a falling out, after which Jack assumed the only reason Marcus would want to find him would be to kill him. It turns out it’s worse than that. Marcus bankrolled a casino heist that has just gone spectacularly wrong, leaving a parking lot full of bodies and an armed and dangerous crackhead named Jerome Ribbons gone AWOL with a million dollars in cash. Marcus had the money earmarked for a major drug deal, and if he doesn’t deliver, not only is the deal going down the tubes, but the man known as The Wolf is going to come looking for him. To make things right with Marcus, Jack needs to locate Ribbons, get the money and make the delivery. All in just 24 hours. Even for a man with Jack’s resources, it’s a tall order. Especially when he has a funny feeling the whole thing is a set-up.
