Masters of Deceit

MASTERS OF DECEIT is a limited 4-part drama series about the 20th century’s most prolific fine art forger, Eric Hebborn. Aided by Sir Anthony Blunt, a celebrated art historian, an advisor to the Queen, and a Soviet double-agent. Eric and Anthony, the masters of deceit, battle to conceal numerous secrets and fictions as treacherous dealers, British and Russian intelligence services, investigative journalists, mafia assassins, old friends, and new foes, attempt to destroy them both.

In development. Based upon Eric Hebborn’s explosive 1991 memoir Drawn To Trouble (rights secured).

Rights to memoir of artist who died in 1996 secured for ambitious TV drama

[Filmmakers] working on a series about the master forger based on Hebborn’s memoir, think his story is still relevant in this “era of questionable authenticity of images.” Today, the term “fake news” is thrown around casually by the president of the United States in speeches and on Twitter, and anyone who knows how to use Photoshop can doctor an image. But Hebborn scoffed at experts long before the dawn of the “Post-Truth Era.”

The mythic art world swindler met an unsettling end; in 1996, Hebborn was found with his skull fractured in Rome, where he had resided for 30 years. Despite rumors that the mafia was involved in his death, no one has ever been arrested in connection with the crime.

Decades after Hebborn's death, concerns over authenticity in the art market remain alive and well.

Ultranormal

When investigators of paranormal activity discover evidence of the CIA's secret MKUltra program, they must separate psychedelic illusion from supernatural phenomena, navigate destructive psychosis, escape merciless CIA operatives, and inform the American people — all before MKUltra destroys more innocent lives, and silences the investigators forever.

A series inspired by true events. In early development.

The Two

THE TWO is an original 10-part drama series based on an out-of-this-world true story.

In early development.
