David Hollander Out as Showrunner of Showtime’s ‘American Gigolo’ Series

Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies has teased Ncuti Gatwa's run as the Time Lord will be 'immense'.

The film version of Len Deighton’s “The Ipcress File,” released in 1965, isn’t exactly the kind of thing that feels like it could support six chapters of episodic television. Sure, the original went on to produce four sequels with the wonderfully droll Michael Caine, but the first film felt largely like a response to the dashing, action-heavy world created by Ian Fleming in the James Bond novels and films.

EXCLUSIVE: Production on Showtime’s drama series American Gigolo has been paused again, this time for at least two weeks, as the series’ co-executive producer David Bar Katz has exited the series, produced by Paramount TV Studios. His departure comes three weeks after the Paramount network and TV studio severed ties with the series’ developer, writer, director and executive producer David Hollander following an investigation into allegations of misconduct and almost two weeks after The Offer executive producers Nikki Toscano and Russell Rothberg joined the series as consulting producers.
