Now that Vikings has come to a conclusion, with the final season premiering on Amazon Prime Video, the show's creator has found his next project. Michael Hirst is adapting The Great Gatsby as a miniseries.

The news comes from The Hollywood Reporter, which says the estate of author F. Scott Fitzgerald is involved in the project. Hirst is set to write and executive produce the miniseries, with Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald's granddaughter, Blake Hazard, serving as a consulting producer.

Interestingly enough, Hirst--who also created the series The Tudors--has a long history with the novel. In a statement, he said, "I seem to have lived with Gatsby most of my life, reading it first as a schoolboy, later teaching it at Oxford in the 1970s, then re-reading it periodically ever since."
