In recent days, there has been much discussion about the project that put streaming platforms to fight for it, it is a production starring the prestigious actors Pedro Pascal and Chris Hemsworth, so much so that Netflix has decided to offer an exorbitant amount of money to get the rights.
The great fame and talent that these actors currently have is a fact that everyone knows, and it is that with these characteristics any production in which they work is guaranteed success and the platforms, Netflix and Amazon Prime are aware of it, so even before the recordings begin they wanted to ensure its distribution in streaming.
This is ‘Crime 101‘, an adaptation of Don Winslow‘s homonymous novel titled ‘Broken‘, which will be directed by the renowned Bart Layton and will have big stars in the cast. Check out the official synopsis below:
“High-level jewelry robberies are taking place all over the Pacific coast and police have linked the heists to Colombian cartels. Detective Lou Lubesnick has other ideas and focuses on a criminal, a white-collar thief looking for the final hit“.
In the middle of the fight that these large platforms have to obtain the rights to ‘Crime 101’ to have the opportunity to broadcast this project, Netflix has decided to offer the exorbitant amount of 100 million dollars, which has been classified by experts as a completely risky proposition.
In the case that Netflix manages to obtain the rights of the production of Chris Hemsworth and Pedro Pascal, this would be one of the most expensive projects on the platform, along with the successful series ‘Stranger Things‘ and ‘The Witcher‘.
