‘Journalist Deborah Campbell’s A Disappearance in Damascus, a stunning account of her undercover assignment to report on the plight of Iraqi refugees in Syria, was just optioned by filmmaker Terry George (Hotel Rwanda, In the Name of the Father) who will mount either a feature film or limited series through his Seamus Productions. George will both adapt and direct.
The book option deal was negotiated by attorney Don Steele at Hansen, Jacobson and WME.’
