Ronin TV Series Being Developed By Vikings Creator

Quote

John Frankenheimer’s action thriller Ronin is becoming a TV series, courtesy of Vikings creator Michael Hirst. Ronin starred Robert De Niro as the leader of a group of mercenaries who are hired to steal a mysterious briefcase. The film is best remembered for it’s intense, white-knuckle car chase sequences, in addition to the twisty -script by David Mamet and great supporting turns by Jean Reno, Sean Bean and Stellan Skarsgard.

 

A new report by THR reveals that Vikings showrunner Michael Hirst will adapt Ronin for television, via his newly formed production company Green Pavilion Entertainment. The show is still in development, so no plot or casting details are available, but it seems likely the show will at least broadly follow the same setup as the film, where a group of mercenaries are brought together for a dangerous mission.

 

Ronin doesn’t currently have an airdate

Forget De Niro’s Ronin. I want Frank Miller’s Ronin already. On Netflix. 

But I really did love the movie. So what color was the boathouse?

Frank Miller's Ronin was contracted by SYFY a few years back for a mini series. Has gone nowhere just yet.

Never walk into a room you don’t know how to walk out of.

God this and the Heist had such great dialogue.

Spence: You ever kill anybody? 
Sam: I hurt somebody's feelings once.

Spence: You worried about saving your own skin? 
Sam: Yeah, I am. It covers my body.

Vincent: Everyone's your brother until the rent comes due.

Vincent: What was in the case? 
Sam: I don't remember. 
Vincent: Lesson number two.
