The Thin Man (film series)

The Thin Man is a media franchise featuring detective characters Nick and Nora Charles based on the 1934 novel of the same name by Dashiell Hammett. The franchise includes six theatrical films, one radio series, and one television series. Additionally, it has been reimagined for the stage through a musical and various plays.

Future
In October 2010, it was announced that Johnny Depp was developing a new adaptation of The Thin Man for Warner Bros. through his Infinitum Nihil production company. Rob Marshall was negotiating to direct when screenwriter Jerry Stahl joined the project in March 2011. However, David Koepp came on board to write the script that August.

After creative differences between Koepp and Marshall, Billy Ray was tapped to write the screenplay. But Warner Bros. never green-lit the film, and it was eventually shelved as Marshall entered production on Into the Woods (2014).

In October 2023, LuckyChap Entertainment and Plan B Entertainment were in talks to co-produce a remake of The Thin Man.
