Endemol Studios has acquired the English-language rights for a US adaptation of the French crime drama Engrenages. The popular series, which is in its fifth season in France and has been renewed for a sixth, is centered on the lives of a prosecutor, police captain, judge, and lawyer.
"The show's masterfully complex storylines and layered characters give us the right blueprint to further explore society's ever-changing codes of justice and develop a distinctive, un-apologetic, gripping television drama set against the backdrop of today's U.S. legal system," said Endemol Studios CEO Philippe Maigret.
Last year Netflix acquired a non-exclusive right to air Engrenages in the US. Currently, the first three seasons are available in French with English subtitles.
