I read the book and was hooked, so with Mann involved this should be really good.

HBO Max continues to snag the big names for its upcoming slate of programming. The latest big name is Michael Mann, who directed “The Insider,” “Heat,” and” Collateral.” The four-time Academy Award-nominated and two-time Emmy Award-winning director is set to direct the pilot of the impending streaming service’s “Tokyo Vice.”

“Tokyo Vice” is based on investigative journalist Jake Adelstein’s 2009 memoir, “Tokyo Vice: An American Reporter on the Police Beat in Japan.” In the book, Adelstein recounted his time as the first non-Japanese reporter to work for Yomiuri Shimbun, one of Japan’s largest newspapers. As the only American on the crime beat at the paper, Adelstein eventually embedding himself within the Tokyo Vice police squad in order to reveal corruption.

The godfather of “Miami Vice” — both the hit ‘80s series, where he served as executive producer, and his 2006 feature film adaptation starring Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx — Michael Mann is another huge get for HBO Max and the perfect choice to set the visual tone for this new series. Mann will serve as executive producer of “Tokyo Vice,” alongside stars Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe, John Lesher, Emily Gerson Saines, Alan Poul, and Destin Daniel Cretton.
