Former “The Walking Dead” showrunner Angela Kang is set as writer and executive producer on “Never to Be Found,” a psychological thriller TV series in the works at Amazon MGM Studios.
Per the description for the series adaptation, “Never to Be Found” “is a psychological thriller that weaves together themes of disappearance, identity, obsession, and the long shadow of trauma. The novel alternates between present-day Brighton/York and flashbacks to Japan and London, following protagonist Veronica Page as she becomes entangled with a suspected murderer while confronting her own painful past.”
Currently in the development stage, “Never to Be Found” is based on an upcoming novel by “The Confession” author Jo Spain, which is set to release July 2 in the UK.
Kang will write and executive produce the project alongside her Kang & Co Entertainment producing partner Mandy Safavi. Spain is also an executive producer.
Currently under a multi-year overall deal at Amazon MGM Studios, Kang is also writing and producing a book-to-TV-series adaptation of R.F. Kuang’s fantasy novel “Katabasis.” Previously, Kang was developing Amazon’s now-scrapped “Silk: Spider Society” live-action series. She formerly served as showrunner of “The Walking Dead” and is an executive producer on one of AMC’s ongoing spinoff series, “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon.”
Kang is repped by Dave Park and Gina Reyes at UTA, A.B. Fischer at Literate, and PJ Shapiro at JSSK.
“Never to Be Found” author Spain is repped by Nicola Barr at Rye Literary and Will Peterson at Independent Talent Group, and Mary Darby of Darby Literary for translation.
