NBC is interested in taking on Steven Spielberg’s “Nine Lives,” which four years ago was picked up by Syfy (then the SCI FI Channel) as a 12-hour miniseries but never went ahead.
The project, written by Les Bohem, revolves around a group of people who find a way to reunite with their loved ones in the afterlife through near-death experiences, but those journeys unleash an evil force.
Bohem is reworking the script for a broader broadcast audience. If it moves ahead, NBC is eyeing the property as a direct-to-series vehicle.
