‘Gomorrah’ Writers, Producers Riccardo Tozzi and Pietro Valsecchi Team on Crime Series About True Story of Murderous ‘White Uno Gang’ (EXCLUSIVE)


'Gomorrah' writers are developing a crime series about the true story of Italy's 'White Uno Gang,' with producers Riccardo Tozzi and Pietro Valsecchi.

“We are aiming to reconstruct the events while exploring the personalities of both the criminals and those around them,” Fasoli and Ravagli said in the statement, noting that “the investigative narrative” will unfold in parallel to the story of the atrocious crimes that were committed. “The real events are so extreme they feel like fiction,” said Tozzi, a crime series specialist who, besides “Gomorrah,” which is Italy’s most widely exported TV show, cocaine-trafficking drama ZeroZeroZero and Netflix’s first Italian original, “Suburra.” “We are deeply passionate about this project and thrilled to be bringing it to life with Pietro Valsecchi.” “This project represents a crucial step in retelling a highly dramatic story packed with tension and authenticity,” said Valsecchi, whose credits include Italy’s all-time top-grossing movie “Quo Vado” and a French remake of concept comedy “Perfect Strangers” titled “Le Jeu.” “It will captivate both Italian and international audiences,” he added.
