    Info coca1ne Cowboys

    this http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0380268/

    is being turned into this

    "HBO has ponied up for "coca1ne Cowboys," a drama about the 1980s drug trade in Miami.

    Prolific producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Michael Bay brought the project, based on a documentary by Billy Corben, to the cable channel and will executive produce. Meredith Stiehm, creator of the Bruckheimer-produced "Cold Case," will write a pilot script, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

    "coca1ne Cowboys" will be set in Miami in the early '80s, when an influx of coca1ne from Colombia turned the city into a mecca for drug traffickers and helped burnish Miami's image as a hedonistic playground. The documentary's producers are working with Bruckheimer's team on the project.

    The show is the first for Bruckheimer at HBO. His other series -- which include the "CSI" franchise and "Without a Trace" -- have all aired on broadcast networks. He does have a pilot in development at TNT.

    It's also part of a wave of development at HBO. The cable channel, which is in the midst of refreshing its original-series lineup, has picked up three new comedy series in the past week and has a half-dozen other pilots under consideration. "

    The documentary is brilliant and worth grabbing if you havent seen it !

    i heard about this. definately an effort to replace the HBO's now thinning line up.

    i believe steve buscemi is set to play a main role.

    sounds good.
