BBC America is getting deeper into scripted territory with a new miniseries based on English fantasy writer Susanna Clarke's 2004 bestseller Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, a nearly 800-page tome set in the 19th century about two wizards who believe that magic is going to return to England. The series starts filming this summer and is set to premiere next year.
The adaptation will be written by Peter Harness, who adapted Swedish novelist Henning Mankell's Wallander novels for British TV, and will be directed by Doctor Who and Sherlock vet Toby Haynes.
