‘Your Honor’ To Be Remade In Ukraine
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Hit Israeli drama series Your Honor is having an international resurgence. Your Honor, which recently sold to China and was previously remade in the States starring Bryan Cranston, is now traveling to Ukraine via a remake from local entertainment giant 1+1 Media.
The Ukrainian version will be made into a weighty, 16-episode series, with creative details and casting being ironed out. Titled Kvodo, the legal thriller originated in Israel but is familiar to American audiences due to the popular Showtime adaptation starring Cranston, which ran for two seasons.
It tells the story of a respected senior judge whose son is involved in a hit-and-run accident, leading to difficult choices, moral dilemmas and terrible consequences as he attempts to keep the crime a secret.
Outside the U.S., Your Honor has been adapted in France, Germany, Spain, Italy, South Korea, Turkey, India and Russia. The Chinese version is being developed by William Lau and his Ladder Ideas Limited.
