DVD Review: “The Alienist Season 2: Angel Of Darkness”

I hold in my hand a copy of “The Alienist: Angel of Darkness“, which serves as the second season of the crime-thriller series from TNT, set to be released on May 18, 2021. Let me start with the box itself which has an almost metallic sheen and features an image of the three main stars, Daniel Brühl (Rush), Luke Evans (Midway), and Dakota Fanning (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood), flanked by red wings dripping with blood.

NBC Orders The Pilot For ‘Bone Collector’ Spin-Off Series “Lincoln”

Several months ago we reported that NBC was working on a television adaptation of Jeffrey Deaver‘s novel The Bone Collector which was made into a film back in 1999 starring Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie. Deadline has reported that NBC has ordered the pilot for the new series titled “Lincoln.” The series centers on Lincoln Rhyme, a legendary forensic criminologist who was seriously injured during his hunt for the serial killer known as the Bone Collector. He is called back into action when the killer re-emerges and forms a one of a kind partnership Amelia Sachs, a young cop who helps his search for the killer while working on the most high-profile cases of the NYPD. The writing duo of VJ Boyd (S.W.A.T.) and Mark Bianculli (S.W.A.T.) are penning the script for “Lincoln” from Universal Television and Sony Pictures in association with Keshet Studios.

NBC Adapting 1999’s ‘Bone Collector’ For New Series

One of the best serial killer films to come out of the late 90’s was Philip Noyce’s thriller The Bone Collector, starring Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie, based on the novel by Jeffrey Deaver. After nearly two decades, the film is getting a series adaptation from NBC, according to The Wrap. The film follows retired forensic criminologist genius Lincoln Rhyme who was left paralyzed after an on the job accident. When a case brings him back into the fold, Rhyme partners with Amelia Sachs, an ambitious young cop, in order to take down a serial killer. Universal Television and Sony Pictures have teamed up with Keshet Studios for the series. Below you will find the trailer for the 1999 original film which is now streaming on Hulu. If you haven’t seen The Bone Collector, I recommend that you do so immediately.
