After a competitive bidding process, Netflix has today given a series order to the original drama series Thumblite starring Rosamund Pike (The Wheel of Time, Saltburn). An episode count and premiere date window were not immediately announced.
Set in Silicon Valley, the drama will examine the schemes, rivalries, visions and obsessions of the power brokers and their underlings as they vie for control of the most powerful industry the world has ever known.
Scott Z. Burns created the drama. He will executive produce with Pike, Scott Galloway, Greg Jacobs, Michael Ellenberg and Lindsey Springer. Media Res will produce.
