According to the Hollywood Reporter, a scripted TV series following The Rolling Stones origins is in the works at FX. The story would reportedly follow the band during their formative years, specifically the 1960s through to 1972. The project will be overseen by About A Boy and High Fidelity author Nick Hornby as well as the producers of The Crown from Left Bank.
FX CEO John Landgraf confirmed the news at Disney’s Investor Day yesterday, saying the network is in “advanced talks” for the series.
