McQuarrie Adapts Brit's "Unforgiven"

"Jack Reacher" writer/director Christopher McQuarrie is set to pen, produce and direct a feature film adaptation of the UK miniseries "Unforgiven" says Deadline.

In the original, the story begins as a woman (Suranne Jones) completes a fifteen-year prison stretch for the murder of two policemen who’d come to evict her family from their farmhouse. Wanting to live a quiet life and reunite with her troubled younger sister, she unwittingly becomes a target for revenge.


Sally Wainwright wrote the teleplay for the small screen version.

Graham King will produce the new movie

McQuarrie was originally slated to write the project back in 2010 as an Angelina Angelina Jolie vehicle.
