NBC Universal Orders ONE OF US IS LYING Series Pilot

Karen M. McManusOne Of Us Is Lying is a favorite among YA readers and critics alike and now, it’s on its way to becoming its own TV show!

NBC Universal ordered a pilot for a potential One Of Us Is Lying television series based on an adapted script by screenwriter Erica Saleh. If picked up, the series will air on NBCU’s upcoming and still unnamed streaming service, which is due to launch in April 2020.

Branded as The Breakfast Club meets Pretty Little Liars, the novel follows five teens who walk into detention… and the four who walk out murder suspects after the fifth dies. Bronwyn, Addy, Nate, and Cooper all have reasons to want Simon dead, but which one actually did it and why?

In May, McManus announced that she’ll be releasing a sequel called One Of Us Is Next in January 2020. It’s currently available for preorder via Amazon and Indiebound.

We’ll keep you updated as more news about the series is released!
