As Pierce Brosnan announced last night on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Relativity Studios will soon be entering pre-production on a sequel to The November Man in advance of its debut on August 27th, 2014.

Brosnan will reprise his role as the lead character in the films based on Bill Granger’s bestselling November Man book series. Beau St. Clair and Brosnan will produce through their Irish Dreamtime banner with Sriram Das of Das Films.

Code named ‘The November Man’; Peter Devereaux (Pierce Brosnan) is an extremely dangerous and highly trained ex-CIA agent. The November Man series is the ultimate cat and mouse game set in the world of international espionage.

Robbie Brenner, president of Production at Relativity said: “The November Man is a gritty series that re-invents the spy genre with its master Pierce Brosnan by combining the best elements of James Bond and Jason Bourne while echoing the cool, sleek action movies of the 70s. We are excited to launch The November Man later this month and to continue to explore Peter Devereaux’s dangerous world with Pierce over the years to come.”

Brosnan said: “The November Man is an iconic, tough character and I am excited to partner with Relativity to continue to bring him to life.”

Relativity is a global media company engaged in multiple aspects of content production and distribution, including movies, television, fashion, sports, digital and music.
