Zero Day Threat, the screen version

Posted on | April 11, 2008 | 3 comments

Honolulu Star-Bulletin columnist Katherine Nichols gets our vote for news scoop of the day. Nichols is the first to report on our signing with Hollywood-based producers Richard Weiner and Jeff Luini, to try to get Zero Day Threat made into a movie. We have great trust and confidence in Richard, a former USA TODAY sports reporter and a writer and consultant for Oliver Stone’s pro-football drama, Any Given Sunday, and Jeff, who’s producing Courtney Cox’s TV series, Dirt.

  1. Congratulations Byron, am so proud of you and so happy that my introduction of Kathi Paton, Literary Agent, to you has resulted in such a fruitful endeavor. Your ability to write about such a difficult subject is just amazing and admirable. Hope your whole family (those sons of yours!) is doing well and all my best wishes.
    Your table partner at the Polk Awards the year you won that and the Pulitzer!!! Helene

  2. Thank you very much Helene. I do remember you. Please email me your preferred shipping address, and I’ll send you a signed copy of the book.

  3. Hey, Byron, this is awesome news! I know it takes a lot to go from the written page to film, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you. Good luck!
