Marti Noxon

The Executioner

Based on the true story of Anatole Deibler, the official Executioner of Paris in the late 1800s and a celebrity in his own right. The hourlong drama takes a dark look at a conflicted man who is forced to mete out Old World justice in an increasingly modern age while grappling with death and his own infamy. Tim Sexton is attached to write and executive produce the project from Grady Twins and Warner Horizon, with Marti Noxon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and Dawn Parouse (Prison Break) on board as non-writing executive producers.
