FX开发《美国精神病人》剧集版
《美国精神病人》(American Psycho)小说原著作者Bret Easton Ellis上年在推特表达了他对电影角色 - Patrick Bateman(电影版由Christian Bale饰演,即是蝙蝠侠前传男主角)的意见,而现在FX则决定开发《美国精神病人》剧集版,描述当年的Patrick Bateman在年过半百后,培育了一个新的杀人魔。
以下为推特原文:
"Patrick would hate Obama and for example, go into great detail about the Honey Badger fraudulence of #Kony2012 and he'd love Kim Kardashian," Ellis wrote. "Patrick's iPad would start speaking to him... Telling him Adele's cover of The Cure drove him to killing, well, just about everybody..." the author continued. Social media also heavily played into Ellis' ideas for a modern American Psycho, suggesting Patrick would plain about Tumblr, find victims on Blendr and post pictures of murdered girls on Facebook.
