HBO Max has put in development The Last Of The Mohicans, a series based on the historical novel by James Fenimore Cooper, from Emmy winner Cary Joji Fukunaga (True Detective), Watchmen director Nicole Kassell, Nick Osborne (Remember Me) and Paramount Television, where Fukunaga is under an overall deal, Deadline has confirmed. The project had been in development at Paramount TV since last April. Anonymous Content and Fukunaga’s Parliament of Owls are producing. Kassell will direct.
Written by Fukunaga and Osborne and directed by Kassell, The Last of the Mohicans series will be a retelling of Cooper’s French and Indian War novel that re-centers the classic tale on the unlikely romance between Uncas, a young Mohican, and Cora, the mixed-race daughter of a British colonel.
The Last of the Mohicans has a long history of both TV and film adaptions. There have been nine film adaptations, beginning with a 1912 version starring James Cruze.
