Netflix Grabs Silicon Valley Thriller Starring Rosamund Pike
Netflix will explore Silicon Valley in its next drama series.
The streamer won a bidding war by giving a straight-to-series order to Thumblite, set in the epicenter of the tech industry. The series comes from The Morning Show and Pachinko producer Media Res and creator Scott Z. Burns (The Report, Apple TV+’s Extrapolations); NYU marketing professor and podcaster Scott Galloway is an executive producer. Rosamund Pike (The Wheel of Time, Saltburn) will star and executive produce.
Netflix describes Thumblite as “a corporate thriller set in Silicon Valley, that examines the schemes, rivalries, visions and obsessions of the power brokers and their underlings as they vie for control of the most powerful industry the world has ever known.” Details on Pike’s role in the show are being kept quiet for now.
Burns will serve as showrunner on the series. His writing credits also include feature films The Informant!, Contagion and The Laundromat, and he directed episodes of Showtime’s The Loudest Voice and Californication in addition to Extrapolations, Apple’s anthology about climate change.
The show marks the first involvement in a scripted show for Galloway, who co-hosts the Pivot podcast with tech journalist Kara Swisher and has written a book about tech giants Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Google.
Burns, Galloway and Pike executive produce, alongside Greg Jacobs and Michael Ellenberg and Lindsey Springer for Media Res.
