Los Angeles-based production company Intrigue has secured a pilot production commitment (with a series penalty) from NBC on a re-make of the Turkish series Game of Silence. 

Intrigue will produce, along with Carol Mendelsohn Productions, writer David Hudgins and Sony TV.  The project is based on the drama Game of Silence (original title: Suskunlar), by Turkish producer Timur Savci of Tims Productions.  Global Agency’s Catherine Stryker (Head of Sales) and Intrigue’s VP of Development Kelly Pancho facilitated the rights deal. 

“Global Agency has been representing Tims Productions for several years and I have seen their productions win over audiences worldwide,” said Catherine Stryker. “I am delighted that their project will be going to the USA.”  

“We’re so thrilled to be moving forward with NBC and Sony on Game of Silence,” said Tariq Jalil, President of Intrigue.  “We love the original format and think Carol and David have a fantastic creative vision that will offer a new perspective to the legal genre for U.S. audiences.”
