Man About a Dog Becomes Obsession

Director, writer attached to thriller



Alec Coppel’s novel “A Man About a Dog” is being adapted once again, this time by Think Tank Films. Thaddeus O’Sullivan will direct from a script by Rob Green (The Bunker, House).

Described as a psychological thriller, the story centers around a jealous husband and the revenge scheme he exacts against his wife’s lover. The title “A Man About a Dog” takes its cue from the narrative’s canine who leads investigators to the husband. Richard Johns (Shadow of the Vampire) and Rupert Jermyn will produce.

Coppel’s source material was realized in 1949 by Edward Dmytryk and was known then as Obsession, or, The Hidden Room.
