This is the best summary I could come up with:
Paul Giamatti has closed a deal to star in a Hostel TV series with the franchise’s Eli Roth, Chris Briggs and Mike Fleiss all returning for the project from Fifth Season, the studio behind Apple’s Severance.
The Hostel show, which is currently in development and does not yet have a platform attached, is described as being a “modern adaptation” and an “elevated thriller” that’s also a “reinvention” of the horror franchise that launched in 2006 and spawned two sequels.
The original movie revolved around three backpackers as they headed to a Slovak city that promised to meet their hedonistic expectations, with no idea of the hell that awaited them.
He has also hosted discovery’s Shark After Dark and produced the Discovery/Travel Channel franchise Eli Roth Presents, featuring The Legion of Exorcists, A Ghost Ruined My Life and My Possessed Pet.
Most recently, he wrote, directed and produced the slasher pic Thanksgiving and is prepping its sequel after the film cut up $31.9 million at the domestic box office.
Fifth season, formerly Endeavor Content, produces series including Apple’s Severance and the upcoming Lady in the Lake and Chief of War, Hulu’s Life & Beth, Nine Perfect Strangers, Max’s Tokyo Vice and Peacock’s Wolf Like Me.
