DEADLINE reports that J.J. Abrams‘ Bad Robot is in negotiations for the rights 11/22/63.
Nellie Andreeva says that the plan is to adapt the book as a TV series or miniseries -- possibly for cable.
Andreeva writes, "Bad Robot, which received an early renewal for NBC’s
Revolution earlier today, had been looking to expand its TV business to cable. In addition to
Revolution, the company has CBS drama
Person Of Interest also renewed for next season. The deal for
11/22/63 comes on the heels of CBS’ green light for a drama series based on King’s novel
Under The Dome, which will air this summer."

Oh HELL Yeah! This is more bloody like it! The only thing that would make this complete is if Abrams signs on frank Darabont to direct...and maybe convince Gary Oldman to resurrect his most famous role (one can always hope).
