Ernest Hemingway Biography From Mary V. Dearborn Set For TV Series Adaptation Through Avatar Entertainment
Mary V. Dearborn's 'Ernest Hemingway: A Biography' is to be adapted as a TV series after Avatar Entertainment acquired the rights.
LA’s Avatar Entertainment has secured rights to Mary V. Dearborn ‘s ‘Ernest Hemingway: A Biography’ and was at MIPCOM this week shopping the project to buyers. The biography, which has received praise from The Washington Post as “the most fully faceted portrait of Hemingway now available,” extensively chronicles his time in Spain during the Spanish Civil War, Cuba, Geneva, Kenya, Wyoming, Key West and the Normandy landing of World War II, and explores his Nobel Prize win of 1953, his four wives, multiple affairs and, ultimately, his suicide at his Idaho ranch. “I see Mary V. Dearborn’s definitive biography of Hemingway to be the foundational IP for an awards-worthy, super-premium TV series that will attract major talent both in front and behind the camera,” said Robinson.
