Film director Noah Baumbach is taking on the small screen to adapt Andrew Ridker's novel 'Hope' into a series, with A24 and marking a return to TV for over a decade for 'Jay Kelly' director.

In the world of film and television, acclaimed director Noah Baumbach continues to make waves with his latest projects.

Baumbach, known for his work on films such as "While We're Young" starring Ben Stiller, Naomi Watts, Adam Driver, and Amanda Seyfriend, is now venturing into television once again. The move to television was revealed in a longform profile of production studio A24 in The New Yorker.

One of Baumbach's new projects is an adaptation of Andrew Ridker's novel "Hope." The series, developed in collaboration with A24, focuses on the story of the Greenspan family from suburban Boston. The Greenspans, depicted as an exceptional family living in Brookline, Massachusetts, an idyllic and idealistic suburb west of Boston, find their seemingly perfect life unravelling due to a series of scandals.

The novel, published by Penguin last year, is set over one year in 2013. The information about Baumbach's new projects was not previously known.

In "Hope," Scott Greenspan, a successful physician with his own cardiology practice, is caught falsifying blood samples at work, setting in motion a series of scandals that threaten to shatter his family. Scott's wife, Deb Greenspan, leaves him for a female power broker, while their daughter, Maya Greenspan, rekindles a hazardous affair from her youth. Their son, Gideon Greenspan, drops out of college to go on a dangerous journey that will put his principles to the test.

Baumbach has a history with A24, having previously worked with them on "While We're Young" and in 2012 when he directed a pilot based on Jonathan Franzen's "The Corrections" for HBO. A24 is also involved in other notable television series such as HBO's "Euphoria," Netflix's "Beef," Prime Video's "Overcompensating," and Apple's upcoming "Margo's Got Money Troubles."

At the Venice Film Festival, Baumbach is directing a comedy drama named "Jay Kelly." The details of this project are yet to be fully disclosed, but it promises to be another exciting addition to Baumbach's diverse portfolio.

In his earlier career, Baumbach wrote the Thomas Schlamme-directed TV movie "Thirty." With his latest projects, it is clear that Baumbach continues to push boundaries and explore new territories in the world of film and television.
