‘The Offer’: Armie Hammer To Play ‘The Godfather’ Producer Al Ruddy In Series – Deadline
EXCLUSIVE: Paramount+ has set Armie Hammer to star as The Godfather producer Al Ruddy in the limited event series The Offer. A signature show for ViacomCBS’ upcoming global subscription video on demand service, The Offer is based on the Oscar-winning producer Ruddy’s never before revealed experiences of making the iconic 1972 film that Francis Coppola directed and adapted with Mario Puzo from the latter’s bestselling mob novel, with Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan, John Cazale, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton and Talia Shire among the iconic cast.
The 10-episode event series is written and executive produced by Oscar- and Emmy-nominated writer Michael Tolkin (Escape at Dannemora and The Player). Ruddy will also serve as executive producer alongside Nikki Toscano (Hunters) and Leslie Greif (Hatfields & McCoys). It is produced by Paramount TV Studios.
