Mick Jackson’s BAFTA-winning 1984 apocalyptic thriller Threads is being given the small screen treatment.

Adolescence producer Warp Films is making a TV drama adaptation of the nuclear movie, which portrayed a fictional apocalypse in the north England city of Sheffield.

The highly-rated movie, which was penned by Barry Hines, was an international co-production between the BBC, Nine Network and Western World Television and was one of the first projects to portray a nuclear winter at a time when the Cold War was raging. It starred Paul Vaughan, Karen Meagher and Reece Dinsdale.

The TV movie was nommed for seven BAFTAs and won four.

Watch on Deadline

Warp is riding high off the runaway success of Netflix’s Adolescence, which the Sheffield-based outfit produced with Brad Pitt’s Plan B and star Stephen Graham’s Matriarch Productions.

Warp boss Mark Herbert said: “Threads was, and remains, an unflinchingly honest drama that imagines the devastating effects of nuclear conflict on ordinary people. This story aligns perfectly with our ethos of telling powerful, grounded narratives that deeply connect with audiences. Reimagining this classic film as a TV drama gives us a unique opportunity to explore its modern relevance.” Warp did not give details of creative team or casting behind the project.
