Varietyis confirming that USA has put ina series guild forTreadstone , after having previously acquired the show ’s pilot only . The serial will revolve around the eponymous ( and fictional ) CIA calamitous ops program Operation Treadstone - aka . the top - hugger-mugger project that " created " Bourne - and come after several Treadstone sleeper agents based around the world , as they are cryptically " awakened " and coiffe back into action .

“ As the # 1 cable amusement web for the past 12 yr , USA internet is delivering a dynamic lineup of giving , bold programing - and what could be bountiful and bold than the Treadstone mythology ? "
Kring has a long and noteworthy track platter , when it comes to developing successful genre TV serial . In special , the premiss forTreadstonebegs compare to Kring ’s hit superhero television showHeroes , i.e. another series about people with over-the-top ability from around the major planet chance upon what they’rereallycapable of . Of course , he ’s also far from a stranger to comparatively naturalistic genre material and hisBourneTV spinoff might hew closer to Kring ’s premature crime drama - thriller likeCrossing JordanthanHeroes , in that respect .
It will be interesting to see how much success ( or lack thereof ) theBourneIP has in amplify its reach to the diminished screen … again . TheBournemovie franchise previously undertake to branch out with 2012 ’s Jeremy Renner - led spinoffThe Bourne Legacy , but that plastic film earned an overall tepid reception ( critically and commercially ) and is unlikely to receive a direct sequel at this degree . television set , apparently , is a whole other egg game and both Kring and USA has managed to develop long - running hit based around similar high-pitched - concepts in the past tense ( seeBurn Notice , Mr. Robot , and so on ) , so that surely bodes well forTreadstone .
