Maybe this will help move the needle for Peacock’s stagnating subscriber base? The streamer has picked up Eli Roth’s Hostel series, a television adaptation of the horror director’s gruesome “tortured abroad” franchise. Paul Giamatti, first announced as attached to the project over a year ago, will star in the show in an undisclosed role.

Hostel TV series, from writer, director, and executive producer Eli Roth and featuring Billions actor Paul Giamatti, has found a home for streaming. If the show does get made, it will be the latest entry in the Hostel franchise.

As originally reported, Paul Giamatti is attached to star in the series, with “Hostel” mastermind Eli Roth set to write, direct, and executive produce. Chris Briggs and Mike Fleiss, who have produced all the “Hostel” films, are also executive producers. Fifth Season is the studio. Exact plot details are being kept under wraps.
