Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Friday that Morgan Spector is in negotiations to play Professor Robert Langdon in Netflix’s series adaptation of Dan Brown’s The Secret of Secrets.
- Reports say Rebecca Hall is in talks to play the missing scientist Katherine Solomon opposite Spector, but Netflix has declined to comment and neither casting is officially confirmed.
- Dan Brown and Carlton Cuse are credited as co-creators and executive producers on the project, with Cuse serving as showrunner under his Genre Arts banner.
- Production is slated to begin this fall on location in Prague, and sources say scheduling discussions could allow Spector to continue his role on HBO’s The Gilded Age if both series move forward.
- The reported casting and series order build on the long-running Langdon franchise that has sold more than 250 million books worldwide and previously produced three Tom Hanks films and a short-lived Peacock prequel.
