Jason Schwartzman HBO P.I. Pilot BORED TO DEATH To Be Helmed By Alan Taylor!!

I am – Hercules!!


Alan Taylor, whose long list of directorial credits include episodes of “Sex and the City,” “Oz,” “Six Feet Under,” “Carnivale,” “Deadwood,” “Rome,” “Big Love” and “The Sopranos,” has been hired helm the pilot of HBO’s “Bored To Death.”

Scripted by somebody named Jonathan Ames, the comedy project stars Jason Schwartzman (“Rushmore,” “Shopgirl,” “Marie Antoinette,” “The Darjeeling Limited”) as a writer who, reeling from a break-up, starts pretending to be a private detective.
