‘Virgin River’ Creator Sue Tenney & Fellow Alum Amy Palmer Robertson To Adapt ‘The Lifeguards’ Novel As TV Series For Wiip
Wiip has optioned Amanda Eyre Ward's novel The Lifeguards. In Sue Tenney's followup to Virgin River, she will write with Amy Palmer Robertson.
“We were immediately hooked by Amanda Ward’s brilliant and juicy page-turner because of its frank exploration of the complicated relationships between mothers and their teenaged sons, all set against the backdrop of a delicious, monied murder mystery,” Tenney and Robertson said. “Thanks to wiip, who are champions of creative and compelling storytelling, we’ve been given the freedom to create a sexy, soapy, domestic suspense series that is both thought-provoking and filled with exciting, unpredictable twists.” With seasoned writers like Sue and Amy, whose work on Virgin River is beloved, ensures this adaptation will deliver the kind of premium storytelling that will resonate deeply with audiences.”
