Keanu Reeves is in talks to star in the Hulu series adaptation of Erik Larson’s famed 2003 novel “The Devil in the White City”.
Set against the backdrop of the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, it tells the intertwining stories of fair architect Daniel H. Burnham and serial killer Henry H. Holmes, a charming sociopath who used a hotel he built near the fairgrounds to lure victims.
Complete with gas chamber and crematorium, Holmes would murder his victims and strip their skeletons to sell for medical and scientific study. Holmes killed at least twenty-seven people, mostly young women, though some say the number was closer to nearly two hundred.
A screen adaptation has been in the works, in one form or another, since the novel was published nearly twenty years ago. David Fincher was linked at one point, and for a while there the project was looking to be another Scorsese-Di Caprio team-up film at Paramount Pictures.
The Hulu version was announced in 2019 and still has DiCaprio and Scorsese executive producing alongside Rick Yorn, Sam Shaw, Jennifer Davisson and Stacey Sher.
Todd Field is set to direct the first two episodes with Paramount TV Studios, ABC Signature and Appian Way backing the adaptation.
The news comes as LAD Bible revealed that Reeves reportedly gave away 70% of his “The Matrix Resurrections” salary to aid in the search for a cure for leukaemia.
