Bigelow will direct the HBO pilot “The Miraculous Year” based on a script by writer John Logan (THE AVIATOR, GLADIATOR). The series is an original idea that would follow “a New York family as seen through the lens of a charismatic, self-destructive Broadway composer.” It’s not the kind of fare many would expect from Bigelow who’s been known to gravitate towards more gritty, action-oriented fare. But maybe that’s exactly why she’s doing it.
Bigelow has yet to decide on her next feature project, though she is attached to direct TRIPLE FRONTIER, an action-adventure pic about organized crime in South America. Filming on “Miraculous Year” is expected to begin early this summer.
