According to Variety, David Milch, Creator/Executive Producer of NYPD Blue and Deadwood will be signing to adapt Heavy Rain with Bob Shaye and Michael Lynne producing through their Unique Features banner.
Variety:
As first reported on Variety.com, “Rain” is being developed via Unique’s first-look deal with Warner Bros., which is fast-tracking the project. Milch will start writing “Rain” once he’s finished work on the first season of HBO’s horse-racing series “Luck,” on which he’s creator and exec producer.
“Heavy Rain,” based on the Sony Computer Entertainment game released last year, spans four days of mystery and centers on the hunt for a murderer known as the Origami Killer. Four characters, each following his own leads and with his own motives, take part in a desperate attempt to prevent the killer from claiming a new victim, with each character’s decisions affecting the plans of the other three.
