‘Year Zero’ Miniseries to be written by ‘Fight Club’ screenwriter

My word that’s a bad photoshop.

Jim Uhls, the screenplay writer for Fight Club (and not much else), will write the HBO miniseries based on Nine Inch Nails’s 2007 album “Year Zero.” For those unfamiliar with the band’s fifth studio effort, it is a concept album that imagines a bleak, dystopian 2022 that is the result of policies of the Bush-era. “Year Zero” was always meant to be part of a larger project consisting of the album, a remix version, an alternate reality game, and the television project.

While this series has been delayed and might have seen more hype if it premiered closer to the album’s release date, it is likely to be a much anticipated show for sci-fi and conspiracy fans. Those guys have a bit of a history of holding onto things.
